Album: Give Them Rope
One glance to break you away from her
A bond you sanctioned by sound
and honored with a lack of penetration
Eating daisies and licking roses,
the bitter fruits of bickering politicians
And there he stood a model of perfection
Careless and fit with contempt for me
Could you predict this before you
Did you fall to your knees in guilt
Could you fake a single tear to tide over his want of righteousness
What would it take?
Time to sort out your mind still crippled by deviance?
Take it off and show yourself I touch not out of want or need
I haven't the taste for bitterness I touch nothing for it's all you are
There's that thought again There's no one here but you and me
No one needs to know a thing It's a done deal, i'll slip in
What happens on the road
Will stay on the road
Don't think less of me, i'm just a man with needs
I won't tell you twice to get out of my head
and stay awake behind locked doors
And there she stood a model of temptation
Again, wet and willing with no faith in me
Still i passed your twisted test whether in the flesh or in my dreams
Get out of my head and stay awake behind closed doors
Come not with me to correct and condemn
Get out of my bed and stay awake
