Set in Stone

Lyrics

[Intro, Òlah Bliss & Jehst] We break up, we make up We make war, we make love We break up, we make up We make war, we make love [Verse 1] I don't want to lie to you, but you ain't supposed to ask The trail of discarded the ethics and broken hearts Just take a look up at the heavens from below the stars To see Venus and Mars are worlds apart And me I'm on that red planet The God of war that rages on inside my head, dammit Back on the horse I'm riding on it to the next battle Sick of this show and so I'm flicking to the next channel I'm just trying to be free Among chattel The meat market cattle The free market capital Weak-heart debacle Rolling my weed, no tobacco I'm back in the saddle As long as I'm riding the camel Of caramel [?] Got the kid hype like the caffeine in coke I can't choke back this lump in the back of my throat I need to see my Queen back on her throne Swing low, sweet chariot, carry me home [Chorus, Òlah Bliss] If this is the only thing I know Put down everything I own Tell me why I can't let it go Not everything is set in stone [Verse 2] I'm trying to speak to you, but you ain't hearing my truth Another lesson lost, while I'm clinging onto my youth In the confession box when I sing my song in the booth A new trick for an old dog who's long in the tooth Just a circus act And everybody wanna be on the same wave Until they see the surfer crash I need a Baywatch babe, give me the kiss of life But I feel weak in her presence, she my kryptonite I just wanna get my teenage kicks tonight She just wanna stick the knife in, it's uncivilised Dying like a fish out of water, in a pool of blood Why do fools fall in love? It happens to all of us Telling the man in the mirror, 'I hope you brought the blunts.' I'm confused. Going through every emotion all at once Staring at her number, scared to call it up The position is vacant, the location is boarded up [Chorus, Òlah Bliss] If this is the only thing I know Put down everything I own Tell me why I can't let it go Not everything is set in stone If this is the only thing I know Put down everything I own Tell me why I can't let it go Not everything is set in stone [Outro, Òlah Bliss & Jehst] We break up, we make up We make war, we make love We break up, we make up We make war, we make love [Sampled] "At this point Jimi Hendrix was dead Jim Morrison was dead Janis Joplin was dead Alice was in rehab The ones who rose to the top got hurt the worst The pattern became obvious And I realised I was becoming one of them" (Argh! -Billy!)
