Alibi - Set for the Sky

Because I don’t fit into one of your

Labelled shiny boxes

Have me flat packed, sent away

Stuck in my head like a hostage

They smile and they say

«You're never gonna ever leave this cage»

It’s not my age by which you gauge

Every peaceful soul is stained by rage

Control yourself, all the fury and the dread

As if anyone would ever let me forget it

Make yourself a quiet space where you can stop and meditate

I don’t know why I met you but I’m starting to regret it

Where the fuck do you get off

Telling me what to -do- you even understand it

You’re probably right but now you’ve ruined your chance

It’s not quite what you say it’s how you said it

Climb up your tower again

Don’t fall down, there’s no one to save you

I can feel the struggle begin

Keep your mouth shut or it will eat you

We don’t know how important you are

That doesn’t mean that you should tell us

Let go, all I see is violence in your

Eyes as you drag us down

I’d love to help but we’re out of time

We’ve got to leave, I need to breathe

Every minute you waste of your alibi

Is coming right back to bite you

You tell me that you’re innocent

You sing it like a work song

You strike me as malevolent

I never get these things wrong

Sitting in the dark on my own

What a mess again

But the truth is I’m a solid ten

Climb up your tower again

Don’t fall down, there’s no one to save you

I can feel the struggle begin

Keep your mouth shut or it will eat you

We don’t know how important you are

That doesn’t mean that you should tell us

Go, let it go, all I see is violence in your

Eyes as you drag us down

Because they don’t ever listen

Even when the truth is given

All they believe are the facts

And the facts are my admission

He smiles as he says

«You're never gonna ever leave this cage»

It’s not my age by which you gauge

Every peaceful soul is stained by rage

New demons, I can’t face them all

Don’t let go, catch me as I fall apart

Take me to the grave

This soul is stained by rage

New demons, I can’t face them all

Don’t let go, catch me as I fall apart

Take me to the grave

Every peaceful soul is stained by rage

Climb up your tower again

Don’t fall down, there’s no one to save you

I can feel the struggle begin

They don’t ever listen

Even when the truth is given

All they believe are the facts

And the facts are my admission

He smiles as he says

«You're never gonna ever leave this cage»

It’s not my age by which you gauge

Every peaceful soul is stained by rage
