Holiday

(album: Pawns & Kings - 2022)

I couldn't lie if I wanted to, the trick of the take
Has brought this all to a new kinda low
Stuck in a line to an early grave that stands in the way
Of the life I'm meant to know

Save me
I'm falling
With a long long way to go
Losing the fight in a shallow play with nothing to gain
Well I don't wanna bitch about it no more

I've reached the end, it's time
So bring me peace of mind

I need a holiday
There's nothing left to save
I'll hold my tongue as I close the door
Before I walk away
I'll be the first to say
There's more to life than a living
So I'll spread my wings and fly

I compromised to the whims of men who promised a change
But in the end they left me high and dry
I play the fool time and time again, I guess I'm to blame
Now I'm barely getting by

They'll take it all, yeah
And you know that I am right
They'll rob you blind till the wicked end, this place is insane
I got no patience left to put up a fight

I'm down to my last nerve
It only brings me to my worst
When will I learn?

I need a holiday
There's nothing left to save
I'll hold my tongue as I close the door
Before I walk away
I'll be the first to say
There's more to life than a living
So I'll spread my wings and fly

I've reached the end, it's time
So bring me peace of mind

I need a holiday
There's nothing left to save
I'll hold my tongue as I close the door
Before I walk away
I'll be the first to say
There's more to life than a living

I need a holiday
There's nothing left to save
I'll hold my tongue as I close the door
Before I walk away
I'll be the first to say
There's more to life than a living
So I'll spread my wings and fly

I'll spread my wings and fly
I'll spread my wings and fly
