lyrics

Wolves with furtive eyes and tongues to lick the soft hearted dry.
Beware the specious promise.
They know you hear their soliloquies but their teeth bare the truth of the lies.
Sit back, relax and don't panic.

I’m surprised at the thoughts that are in your head.
It amazes me you can get out of bed.
With words forlorn I’m torn in two.
One half is for me, one half is for you.

The waves are getting high.
The clouds are dense; we can’t see the sky
And our sails are in tatters.
Lambs can’t read the signs; they jump the fence
To be free amongst lions.

I’m surprised at the thoughts that are in your head.
It amazes me you can get out of bed.
With words forlorn I’m torn in two.
One half is for me, one half is for you.
We praise those liars, we raise them higher.
Let's ignite them now and we can dance around that bitter fire.

You burn out my eyes so I can’t see the light
But what you don’t realize is that it shines inside.
You cut off my hands so I can’t touch a thing and
You break my voice so that I can’t sing.
But you don’t understand that vibrates and hums.
