There's a buzz in the streets,
there's a stir in the seas,
there's a noise in the ether.
It's right in front of our eyes,
but the sweetest of lies is the hardest to wake from.
And the thoughts that we think,
and the water we drink,
and the music we dance to.
And the rhythm goes on,
though the rhythm is wrong,
you know.
Cause we all know what is going on,
but we close our eyes you see.
And we all know how to play along,
but we're losing so ill.
Now please don't let your guard down.
Don't let your guard down.
Don't let your guard down.
Don't let your guard down.
There's no way to maintain these games in the grey,
it's a losing religion.
There's a knock on our door,
but we're out on the floor,
now who's gonna answer?
There's not the time to hold back,
and hide from the fact,
the damage is done.
Cause if this rhythm goes on,
then the rhythm is gone,
you know.
Come what may,
I finally found a place where we could stay.
Where we poured the whiskey on our grave.
Come what may,
come what may,
come what may.
I finally found a place where we could stay.
And we all know what is going on,
but we close our eyes you see.
And we all know how to play along,
but we're losing so ill, now please.
And we all know what is going on,
but we close our eyes you see.
And everybody knows how to play along,
but we're losing so ill, now please.
Don't let your guard down.
Don't let your guard down.
Don't let your guard down.
Don't let your guard down.
Don't let your guard down.
Don't let your guard down.
Don't let your guard down.
Don't let your guard down.
Don't let your guard down.
Don't let your guard down.
Don't let your guard down.
Don't let your guard down.
