Misfortunate Sons - Temporary Freedom Lyrics
There’s a house at the end of the roadIt’s been beaten down; it’s been empty for years,But it’s still filled with thoughts of the people who have lived thereSo just find another vice to occupy your precious little timeYou’ll find a reason for everything, but I promise you God’s notResponsibleWhat’s it gonna be today? You know you can’t make any of this lastThrough tonightThe ghosts of those who left are here to stayThe happy ending is replaced by painNow you’re standing on the edgeJust waiting for Death to make his claimDip your feet into the water, and remember how it used to feelIf you could only get just one more taste, well then what?This is all that you have left; this is all that you’ll ever knowThis is all that you have left, so why don’t you just pull the plugThis is all that you have left; this is all that you’ll ever knowThis is all that you have left, so why don’t you just pull the plugThe ghosts of those who left are here to stayThe happy ending is replaced by painNow you’re standing on the edgeJust waiting for Death to make his claimOh, what a tragedy; the lies have become realityYou’ve suspended your disbelief, and there’s nothing left to seeNow the spotlight is on you, but the crowd has gone awayRest your head in the dirt; I’m sure it will keep you warm for tonight
