Leave On The Light

(álbum: Closing Arguments - 2009)

No books about my decadence
And fables to remember this
I think about it all the time
And realize it's vain
I feel like gasoline tonight
Don't stand so close, you might catch fire
I can't be honest all the time
I can't be honest all the time

Life is full of promises and prophecies
Well life has made me famous on my knees
And everywhere there's amateurs and enemies
Everywhere there's everyone but me

She said, "You'll be fine
I promise that I'll leave on the light
What are you afraid of?
What are you afraid of?"

I advertise my memories
Lo and behold humanity
I condescend your sympathy
Can understand my pain
I can only hope this melody
Will scream across like clarity
I can't be honest all the time
I can't be honest all the time

People say the army's got a home for me
To find myself out of this rut
And maybe greatness isn't in my destiny
'Sides people say a lot of things, so what?

She said, "You'll be fine
I promise that I'll leave on the light
What are you afraid of?
What are you afraid of?"

That alcohol is heavier than lead
And Hunter S. Thompson is dead
She said, "You'll never have enough
'Til the day that you wake up
And everything is gone
Oh, everything is gone"

I advertise my memories
Lo and behold humanity
I condescend your sympathy
Can understand my pain
I can only hope this melody
Will scream across like clarity
I can't be honest all the time
I can't be honest all the time

She said, "You'll be fine
I promise that I'll leave on the light
What are you afraid of?
What are you afraid of?"

That alcohol is heavier than lead
And Hunter S. Thompson is dead
She said, "You'll never have enough
'Til the day that you wake up
And everything is gone
Oh, everything is gone"
