[Verse 1]
Wicker wishes hold the flames at bay
No water for the martyr, oh, what a shame
Progress is a riddle of delays
Serendipitously arranged
Watch the embers wither into grey
And the filament fade
Oh, and the filament fades
[Verse 2]
It is the cause for causing choruses
To erupt in front of stages in the dark
It is the cure between the words
And what we thought we heard as such
Cleverness and sleight of tongue
[Verse 3]
Ordinarily, we'd find a better fit
And organise the messages' intent
With words and scenes, insinuations
Emotional manipulation throughout (Throughout)
For no good reason, I'd deceive you all
Just to get the point across
[Chorus]
And I've been a hypocrite
And I'm certain I have lied
And I've been to nothingness
And barely bothered to survive
I laughed when your levee broke
To shed tears when nobody rose
To say "It's just a ride"
Wicker wishes hold the flames at bay
No water for the martyr, oh, what a shame
Progress is a riddle of delays
Serendipitously arranged
Watch the embers wither into grey
And the filament fade
Oh, and the filament fades
[Verse 2]
It is the cause for causing choruses
To erupt in front of stages in the dark
It is the cure between the words
And what we thought we heard as such
Cleverness and sleight of tongue
[Verse 3]
Ordinarily, we'd find a better fit
And organise the messages' intent
With words and scenes, insinuations
Emotional manipulation throughout (Throughout)
For no good reason, I'd deceive you all
Just to get the point across
[Chorus]
And I've been a hypocrite
And I'm certain I have lied
And I've been to nothingness
And barely bothered to survive
I laughed when your levee broke
To shed tears when nobody rose
To say "It's just a ride"
