lyrics

Here's a little shame I brought
Just in case we might run out or everyone feels good enough.
Here's a most unpleasant thought
What if we embraced our daydreams, filled each other up with love?

You have hope?
It's a little late for that
Don't you think you should give up?
Passify and just get fat.

What a messy thing to think
Hope's foundation for destruction, hope can drive a man to drink
What a lovely private joke
They go swallow up the fodder, make them laugh until they choke.

Nobody told me
Cus nobody wants me to know.

Became a true believer
That was my first mistake
If I am such a dreamer
Why do you keep me awake?

Seems that all the fruits of labour I crave
Are carved into my cross
Feels like I am just a few days away
From all the pain you caused.
