269 Soulmates - Street Sects

Sky runs out

Innocence runs out

Beggar, the city rejects you

Its half a matter of income, and half a matter of not fitting in

Always the one who gets shot down

Tapping out in the second round when you could have made it by now

But you’re always out there fucking around

All in the game

Five hundred to play

Push it from your brain and don’t feel bad about it

Caught in the fade

Slide under the weight, the depth, the overwhelming hold

You’re barely there

Fog on the mirror

You’re barely there

Thumb back the hammer

Defined by your lies, remain still

Stuck between giving up and committing one final crime

Your mother must be proud

Sky runs out

Innocence runs out

Take your life

Paradise, one way street

If only you were the fool you pretend to be

All in the game, five hundred to play

Stick it in your vein and don’t think twice about it

Caught in the fade

Hand over the claim, the debt

The door has closed

You are alone

All in the game, climb under and stay

The only way you leave is if you turn out the light

Now there’s no one to blame

There’s no need to make amends

There’s no one left

It’s over
