Paroles de Spent Matches
Greatness picked me up by the ankle, cast a sincere glance at me,Shook it's head, it's eyeglass fell, tossed me into obscurity.
Obscurity put me somewere safe for later use,
I couldn't take the abuse.
Laziness wrapped it's arms round me, rocked me to a sleep,
Tried to wake me with a worrying thought but I was gone too deep,
And deepness sucked me well within,
Then threw me in the litter bin.
Strike a light, burn the match,
Seems to me life's just like that,
We're spent matches.
Intelligence kept me at arms length, it didn't want me near,
The more I tried to access it the more I sensed it's fear,
And fear took a hold of me and turned my spine ice cold,
But spineless is a gift of mine, I fear I'm growing old.
And oldness ran a race with me, from birth till the end of time,
I reckon we were neck and neck, but oldness crossed the line,
And madness played a trick on me, it played a clever game,
It let me believe that I was fine, not totally insane.
Strike a light, burn the match,
Seems to me life's just like that, And consequence released its' grip on me,
The accent's off, it's just obscurity.
Strike a light, burn the match,
Seems to me life's just like that,
We're spent matches.
Strike the match, blow it out,
Seems to me without a doubt,
We're spent matches.
Put it out, toss it away,
How many times do I need to say
We're spent matches?
Lighted once, burn out quick,
The consequence just makes me sick,
We're spent matches.
La, la, la, etc..
Spent Matches.
And deepness sucked me well within,
Then threw me in the litter bin.
Strike a light, burn the match,
Seems to me life's just like that,
We're spent matches.
