lyrics

Stay laced with a bag,
I’m pulled tight and keep reaching
Caught in a loophole of evil where my ties deceive me
I’ve been boxed in the gaff, my heads knocking the ceiling
On a mission to forget but I won’t forget this feeling

Cus we’re all fighting a war
We’re the dictator we dance with
Immersed in clever propaganda
A sick traitor we can’t trick
Strung from our core, this belief it just can’t stick
But we never search for proper answers

And sometimes, sometimes
I find with Kate and Charlie Im up late at night
I’m alone and in a constant fight
I love em to death but these friends of mine they lie just to keep me alight
Because with Kate and Charlie reality’s so hard to find
It’s a blow for the trade to keep that peace of mind
Lyin in bed, I’m just staring at the ceiling
Wishin' I could go to sleep and that I could be dreamin'

I must be hallucinating,
Cus I’m seeing things right here that I don’t even believe in
The devil is scheming
And if the lords so holy why do these plot holes close before I can see em
And then we’re back to square one
It’s the middle of the night but the start of my evening
I would say we’ve come full circle but just around the corner there’s a line leading to another bump in the road, and on we go

And it goes on…
And so it goes…
So it goes

We’re all fighting a war
We’re the dictator we dance with
Immersed in clever propaganda
A sick traitor we can’t trick
Strung from our core, this belief it just can’t stick
But we never search for proper answers
Nah…
No we never search for proper answers

Party all night, as a post to the grind
And just for a moment I’m not opposed to this kind of life
Many problems to solve but where is the time
I’m under construction with a lack of design

Before long we’ll be burned out anyway, motivations short like a winters day, and it’s safe to say there’s
A hand in my pocket for a love so deep in vain
Once more we’re tempting fate but we won’t let it rewrite my name
And It’s creepin in
Can you feel it again?
