Papillon's Stalemate
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.
So far it's safe to go out, the boys have their knifes out
I said I'm gonna do this for you anyway, one balloon one cannon ball
This city's got a hold on you, the electricity is getting stronger
(Stronger)
A friction on my head but...
(Stalemate)
Why do we compromise our dreams?
(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)
And on and on it goes
(On and on)
Oh and on and on and on and on and on
(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)
For once in my life I love to feel my instincts sweeten
(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)
And I always seem to owe you an apology
(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)
(On and on)
We diminish our self-respect, until there is none left
I said I've got to do this for you anyway, I jump you summersault
This city's got a hold on you, the electricity is getting stronger
(Stronger)
A theory of a knife fight
(Stalemate)
Why do we compromise our dreams?
(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)
And on and on it goes
(On and on)
Oh and on and on and on and on and on
(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)
For once in my life I love to feel my instincts sweeten
(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)
And I always seem to owe you an apology
(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)
Why do we compromise our dreams?
(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)
And on and on it goes
(On and on)
Oh and on and on and on and on and on
(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)
For once in my life I love to feel my instincts sweeten
(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)
And I always seem to owe you an apology
(Stalemate)
(Stalemate, it's a stalemate)
