Society Of Winners

(álbum: Reader As Detective - 2019)

All I found to get me through
Was a vaguely worded promise said by you
It's turning out to be a perfect way
To keep this place from burning down
To tell you the truth

Any time voices pierce the calm
It's the most boring conversation ever
Listening to people tell you your future
Impatiently awaiting September

Any time acquaintance call your number
You anticipate feeling scared
Recognize faces you remember
From the long ago days of terror

All I found to get me through
Was a vaguely worded promise said by you
It's turning out to be a perfect way
To keep this place from burning down
To tell you the truth

Always with that guilt and sadness
Some days I would believe it's true
I'll wait for that empty promise
I'll take what I can get from you

Always with that guilt and sadness
Some days I would believe it's true
I'll wait for that empty promise
I'll take what I can get from you
