THE COST OF DOING BUSINESS
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We've wasted too many lines on you.
And I keep wondering how long itll take
Til I learn that were sold.
We are the ones who know what darkness brings
When the lights are low.
Just break it down one more time for me.
And this time well get away red handed.
From this bed and these walls, lets softly slip away,
Lets softly slip away to somewhere new.
Give me more scream and less Oh!
My two bloodshot eyes are tearing off your clothes.
Sleeping with the enemys my fun, lets not look back.
I should have known not to trust smoke filled lungs and hazy eyes.
But you looked so good wrapped inside lights.
Small talk is so sweet, especially when all we want is
To run in opposite directions every time we meet.
Give me more scream and less Oh!
My two bloodshot eyes are tearing off your clothes.
Sleeping with the enemys my fun, lets not look back.
Why wait now? Just lie, we all are running, running to hide.
And I wont begin to suffer, but this wont begin to change.
Weve all been running for too long.
Now theyre laughing and staring at you.
Try to get this right
