lyrics

It’s just how serious you have to be;
but it’s trite, and it makes you feel cheap.
Takes the slumber out of the sleep
and drags your dreams to the deep

It’s just how this business is done
smug handshakes a prize to be won
every flash a photo to outgun
and a little grasp of a better life begun

in the seat or the stage
it all stays the same
the whispers of the cage
and the time we blame
take these things for your rage
and take fury for fame
at this stage in the game
it’s all the same

learn how to steal and to cheat
that’s how they sort out the chaff from the wheat
taking no prisoners pile them deep

It’s just how the stage is set
for a promise for things a few can get
like a laugh in the hedge of your bet
like a price that time has not met

It’s just the slow tick of life
going with the trick of breath
knotted in the steadfast what’s left
gone to the grave with no death

in the seat or the stage
it all stays the same
the whispers of the cage
and the time we blame
take these things for your rage
and take fury for fame
at this stage in the game
it’s all the same

learn how to steal and to cheat
that’s how they sort out the chaff from the wheat
taking no prisoners pile them deep
at this stage in the game, it’s all the same
