How Many Times

(album: The Righteous & The Butterfly - 2014)

With mouth open wide
We lie and wait
We can't crucify
Relive our mistakes

The Devil that you know
A wolf in sheep's clothing
Your mate is your match
Set fire to the whole thing
Fire to the whole world

Would you please accept my invitation
No salvation just follow me
Forked tongue with fingers crossed
Transformation the mark of the beast

If ignorance is bliss
Serve me up a cold dish
Of your vengeance
Commitments you're sentenced
Crimes through your Father's eyes
You dare to speak but choose to lie
Win some lose some
Fuck the world it's now numb

And after all this time
I mean to say goodbye
Like we've never met

How many times can we say goodbye
And subject and reflect everything we've tried
So how many times can we say goodbye
I've tried and tried "goodbye" is all I say to you

The Devil that you know
A wolf in sheep's clothing
Your mate is your match (Ahahaha!)
Set fire to the whole thing
Fire to the whole world

Would you please accept my invitation
No salvation just follow me
Forked tongue with fingers crossed
Transformation the mark of the beast

If ignorance is bliss
Serve me up a cold dish
Of your vengeance
Commitments you're sentenced
Crimes through your Father's eyes
You dare to speak but choose to lie
Win some lose some
Fuck the world it's now numb

And after all this time
I mean to say goodbye
Like we've never met

How many times can we say goodbye
And subject and reflect everything we've tried
So how many times can we say goodbye
I've tried and tried "goodbye" is all I say to you

Goodbye

With mouth open wide
We lie and wait
We can't crucify
Relive our mistakes
With mouth open wide
We laugh in your face
