Caught in the Fray Deca

Caught in the fray
Prodigal lost in the maze
Gathering flowers for graves
Volatile state
How can you not be afraid
Watching ‘em falling from grace
I'll be ok
Lotta mistakes
Balance new life with the outer decay
Plotting escape
Walking the opposite way
While they were talking with snakes

Offered the world
Off with their heads
Gotta get paid
Thats the refrain
Watch your step when you walk that edge
Paradise lost for capital gain
Same old song
And dance
Theyre all entranced
And fall in line like army ants
Ive been banging on pots and pans
Nameless soldier no olive branch
Peace'll come, peace'll come
It was all peace when this thing begun
No roman legions or bones in eden
No soldiers beefin for no good reason
Blind progress the impulse to become
The God that that they dont believe in
Overreaching's an understatement
When you watch all the vultures feedin'
Who can say where the road'll lead em'
Thats not how its supposed to be
No sirree better slow your speed
One too many lost that were close to me
Nodding out, burning holes in upholstery
You know the code of the coterie
Love conquers all
And you hold the key
Don't keep all that locked away
Put things in their proper place
