Tonight, not again...Beneath those glittering lights...
When the veils are up...
Cast a face with all these people...
The songs i'll sing, will come mystical to these innocents; as if all a belying victim to the devil; all trapped lambs for the butcher.
Tonight, not again...
I'll drown my sorrows in the incense of liquor cocktails...
Savor the scent of women, whose laughter and company, a relief for the yoke;
then live each moment for only tonight...
I'll mutter pleasantries again, in malignant conversations with whom the twist of my tongue means cancer...
Then laughter... the best kept reprise for this hollow drifting log.
Tonight, not again...
I'll become someone who I know I'm not...
When the veils are up...
Cast a face with all these people...
The songs i'll sing, will come mystical to these innocents; as if all a belying victim to the devil; all trapped lambs for the butcher.
Tonight, not again...
I'll drown my sorrows in the incense of liquor cocktails...
Savor the scent of women, whose laughter and company, a relief for the yoke;
then live each moment for only tonight...
I'll mutter pleasantries again, in malignant conversations with whom the twist of my tongue means cancer...
Then laughter... the best kept reprise for this hollow drifting log.
Tonight, not again...
I'll become someone who I know I'm not...
