take the stage and don't say that you didn't ask for this play the game for that little love fix pray for something i can't shake this feeling that's seeping in my skull i feel it in my gut, blood spilling, tone cold they don't like me, they might try to fight me strangers pose danger that seems highly likely the grime beat that's blaring in the backroom the fat tune and the sad cats that lack moves dancing like they can't see how they be, carefree and flying, meanwhile I'm brooding, moody, laying on the floor and dying, my core is multiplying, I'm a fucking ugly cancer, rancid and sanctioned, I'm a backwards deal-lander wish I could bring myself to feel grander, now and then, but then I realise I'm a coward with a pad and pen, actual brain-dead cavemen steer the ship I'm on my morals whir and hum, I kick 'em when they're going wrong overdrawn and underpaid and thats the way I like to be those blank faces take me, and course they start to lie to me... of course they start to lie to me take the stage and don't say that you didn't ask for this (but you didn't know) play the game for that little love fix pray for something (that you'll never know) x2 I hear their giggling and I know that I'm the target despite the evidence, it's evident regardless I hate women, hate men, and love children they ain't been poisoned yet, no cynic lives inside that kills em I like the stillness of their hectic nature, pattering feet, I find simplicity in half the garbage that they speak, and make-believe is just as real, you feel it just as deep, maybe we should learn to play take breaks, relax and breathe, I don't know. Now I'm just chatting nonsense. I used to wander now I'm wanton, cold and and grey as london, i'm fond of breaking rules, taking risks and chasing rats I aim to live a life of crime until I die with cats back to the topic, honest, I wish I could run away, live in constant gunners fray, not mundane mondays love creates come to say it all before the lord of light and liquor yeah, I confess, I've lifted dress to some forgotten figures take the stage and don't say that you didn't ask for this (but you didn't know) play the game for that little love fix pray for something (that you'll never know)
