Ventriloquist - Fog Lake

Broken mirror

What can you tell me now

I’ve got a death wish

I found a new way out

And it’s a crime they say

But it’s the state I’m in

Scribbling lines I’ve saved

Just trying to write you off

How many knives in my back

Until they can cut my string

You’re the ventriloquist

You’ve put the words in my mouth

And would it resonate

The things you threw my way

We’ve grown so blind to this

We’ll make that our secret

Dial tone sounds

And tv hymns

I’m in the message you saved

Just let the phone ring

Ventriloquist

Tell me what to say

I’ll tell them everything

(Don't tell them everything)

Guilty conscience

What can you sell me now

I got a death wish

Rabbit hole blues I guess

And did it happen so fast

Or was it paved for this

I’ve danced on every stage

Letting my eyes roll back

But now I’m laid so limp

Down in your basement

On quiet days I can

Still hear you whispering
