lyrics

Take your time with the dotted line,
It’s a coal mine to the cold canary,
Who buys a golden cape,
But lacks the stones to wear it,

But you’re here to toe a line,
To be neither seen nor heard,
Make no mistake,
All it takes in an honest word.

Sing, sing till the phone rings,
But like all things,
It’s an echo stuck in the void,

Lean hard on sharp shards,
That pierce the heart,
Of the paranoid king.

Now once more to be sure,
Two and you’re out of there,
Make your mistake,
You can take it up with the next life, yeah.

I’ll wait by the front gate,
Of your soul, mate,
For the aftermath,

Just come do what you came to do,
I hope it’s good for you,
And he makes you laugh.

We can cheers to the liars,
Who taught you to fight fair,
Make your mistake,
You can take it up with the next life, yeah.

Yeah.
