lyrics

So, this is living?
But there’s no defense
I’ve got a ticket for opulence
I shot the devil with Novocain
Just to ease the pain

If you write the words
Then I’ll sing the songs
We’ll get along
I’ll read the words
If you sing the songs
We’ll right the wrongs

Save the saints
For the black-market egos
You’ll hear the truth
When you listen to seagulls
Roll your eyes
When the lies have the prize
Deceptive cons
Make right and wrong

If you write the words
Then I’ll write the songs
We’ll get along
I’ll read the words
If you sing the songs
We’ll right the wrongs

Oh, you brilliant daughter
You’re the one
You make the bleak forecast
Sound like fun
I can have a new truck
But my kids will be dumb
I can swim in the ocean
And carry a gun

If you write the words
Then I’ll write the songs
We’ll get along
I’ll read the words
If you sing the songs
We’ll right the wrongs

You smell like peppermints and parmesan
I smell like chocolate and beer
You smell like peppermints and parmesan
I smell like chocolate and beer
You smell like peppermints and parmesan
I smell like chocolate and beer
You smell like peppermints and parmesan
I smell like chocolate and beer

The Halcyon Brothers decorate the weight of the world in a charming and medicated disguise. The sound embraces with a clinched smile, and then stumbles and occasionally falls only to somehow prop itself back up for another round. ... more
