And it’s all a farce, I know,
And it’s all a joke
(Everything shines like goldmines
Everything rises in its own time)
Yeah you’re such a mystery
Yeah you’re such a tease
(Wonder that lasts a lifetime
Everything rises in its own time)
Yeah, I know what you like
Yeah I know you lie
(Someone else’s son
Not the real one)
Who am I?
Can’t have pleasure all the time
Feeling safe like it’s your birthright
Taking what I want
And leaving what I want
Behind
(What’ll you do tomorrow?
Filling that hollow shell inside you)
Over laying low
Over “just enjoy the ride”
(Really, I’m alive
Really, I’m inside)
What’ll you find?
Really, I don’t mind
Maybe next time
But not this time
When you’re god,
Nothing hurts at all
Have a laugh
As time dissolves
And loses meaning
All alone
Nowhere left to go
With the cheap bravado
Who’d you think you’re fooling?
I could just as soon
Be here and just as soon
be gone
Better save your breath
This is not about what you want
The album packs in interesting arrangements and takes time to try out a few different sounds. Much lighter than my stuff. But that's a good thing sometimes. Collin Kravis
