about

A swashbuckling, somewhat reckless adventure that ends badly -- but that's alright...

lyrics

Standing out alone
When I thought that I could make it
In a way I knew it could never be
Well now I’m back to chump change
And I see how some could steal it
Am I killing time or is it killing me?

And oh I know the feeling
To lose, to fail or be deceived
And it’s all a big wheel
And it keeps coming down
To the ground that moves beneath me

Have you seen the fire burning in the eyes of the doomed?
living every moment like the next one is coming too soon
They’ll cry when they finally get to the end
But the end is nowhere in sight

A knife is in my back but I don’t have time to feel it
I could cry for a while if I wanted to
It’s always what you do and not just if they see it
The good and the bad comes back to you

I try to make sense and I wonder
Is it just a dime in the eyes of a con man?
you know I believed Anita
Is that really so hard to understand?

Have you ever had a liar try so hard to tell you the truth
They lie to you so well they think they got your hat, coat and Shoes
Until one day they find that they can’t tell what’s real

Part of me is gone
Well I hope it wasn’t wasted because it took some time to learn
How to leave in the end

When the storm rolls in what a waste of time to fake it
It’s too late to tell all my fairweather friends

But now I’m coming home and this time I’ll make it
Even if I’m bound for glory in a rental car~

I will carry all your secrets even though you couldn’t make it
It’s too bad for us you couldn’t get that far

Before we storm the gates tell me how you sleep through the night
