A Night on the Town

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I've been misplaced in so many ways Broken battlegrounds, hiding veils Of delicate deceit Yet here I breathe Teeth still gleam from holy water While millions of lambs migrate to the slaughter My head in a bag and my hands are bound to my feet And voices sing [Pre-Chorus] "Were we erased like common thieves? Tossed in a cell to feast with the fleas All because we never had written a word" [Chorus] What will I see tonight, in these eyes? And what will I know when the morning comes? (When the morning comes) What will I see tonight, in these eyes? And what will I know when the morning comes? (When the morning comes) [Verse 2] Must we remind of exchanges existing so long ago? Would we arrive at agreeable musings? Sentimental or just confusing? We lost what we had, but we took it back Friends in the gutter, enjoy one another Just give yourself to the dust and the dirt where you stand [Chorus] What will I see tonight, in these eyes? And what will I know when the morning comes? (When the morning comes) What will I see tonight, in these eyes? And what will I know when the morning comes? (When the morning comes) [Bridge] I'm not who you think I am And even if I thought you'd known I never would have told you so, and more alarming I would have done the very same Would have stole more than your name Would have cursed and brought the world on your shoulders I was in the wrong place At the right time [Verse 3] And what's the worst I'd see by giving myself to the earth below me? Not knowing how far I'd fall, by casting away the ordinary? Just how long can I stay in illusions formed here long before me? And how long can I breathe this stolen breath here underneath? [Instrumental Break] [Outro] There's that subtle smile that did me in She moves An agony reminds where I've been She breathes "I'd never let this happen again" Where's your heart? Mimicking the patriarch She's naive (Blissfully) [Instrumental Outro]
