The Stars and Glitter

Lyrics

[Verse 1:] Stand in line, shoot your cuffs A gift for the wife, a seat on the bus Fill your bags with what you got Ain't who you are but what you bought [Chorus:] Now step up to the gallows Put a rope around your mind You won't see the shadows In the darkest of skies I will hide the shadows in the darkest of skies [Verse 2:] A typical day, a two-faced smile Can't cut your loss, you're the rank and file Take your seat with the lost and bitter And clap your hands at the stars and glitter [Chorus:] Now step up to the gallows Put a rope around your mind You won't see the shadows In the darkest of skies I will hide the shadows in the darkest of skies [Verse 3:] Margin falls, pension plans Paying no attеntion to the starving man A plastic house, a bendеd knee Savor the wine and believe you're free Now sign that line for slavery Though you can't pay that loan This corporate plantation gonna be a newfound home [Chorus:] Now step out to the gallows Put a rope around your mind You won't see the shadows In the darkest of skies I will hide the shadows in the darkest of skies [Verse 1:] Stand in line, shoot your cuffs A gift for the wife, a seat on the bus Fill your bags with what you got Ain't who you are but what you bought
