lyrics

These chords are tired
Checked the label
They’ve long expired
And these words feel hackneyed, contrived
Worn apart by years of life
All of a sudden the creeping doubt just disappears
Takes some time for a hopeful rhyme to make it clear
It doesn’t matter in the end how you play pretend
I’m the prey that’s wounded
Cut me down and snap my neck
Cause I’m losing
Is this what you do for survival
Still I pretend to run like I’m free for a while
Fractals blaze a cloudy haze that burns like time
With blinking tears for a wasted year
You can’t rewind
Treat it with a pen
With more that’s left unsaid
All a man should do
As he wanders endless avenues
Spread a little sweetness
And don’t you want to try
Until our cover is blown
And we scrape and fall
Till the proud and tall prevail
This gun has misfired
The goddamn DOA flight risk: desire
Get to the station, inspiration dissipates
No fortunes told, just the rules of the road
And the luck you make
Doesn’t matter in the end
How you play pretend
