lyrics

Walk the rope without a net
No second chance to hedge our bet
Aloof to the reality of a strain we can't undo
Turn the TV on
Shut your mind and now you're gone
Uncritical of anything that confirms your point of view

Satisfied by mental sedation
Watch the last train leave the station
With a shrug & laugh

Condemned to run this rut
The door is drawing shut
Push it off until tomorrow to face the problems we made

Burn the candle at both ends
No desire to make amends
On the wane our self-destruction is something celebrated

On a crash course with disaster
Surfiet has become your master
But the excess can't sustain

Faces to the sky
Kiss the world goodbye
She doesn't have a mechanism to settle our account
Watch the sun set one last time
Convinced that all is fine
Oblivious to the path we took to reach the end we've found
