Lyrics

can you taste the grit between your teeth the heat of the lights the crack of the whip the snapping sound of someones nerves if you pay you get what you deserve we're coming up from the deep the lizard sheds it's skin night obliterates the day and all the fun begins shadow boxing with yourself just seems to get you nowhere you dont want to cheat when playing solitaire the faces come alive try and focus and be one never let it be said that the jester comes undone a reckless gambling pace with time enough to borrow time enough to measure all of our tomorrows curtain call and lights grow dim tragedy, love all lie within each player takes his chance to play lives to fight another day we're coming up from the deep the lizard sheds its skin night obliterates the day and all the fun begins shadow boxing with yourself just seems to get you nowhere you dont want to cheat when playing solitaire curtain call and lights grow dim tragedy, love all lie within each player takes his chance to play and lives to fight another day what boundaries to cross what chances for the taking stepping in the angels way not to be forsaken curtain call and lights go dim tragedy, love all lie within each player takes his chance to play and lives to fight lives to fight another day another day another day no more will i roam my childish dreams i'll soon outgrow but here we stand in our own theatreland curtain call about to fall we're coming up from the deep the lizard sheds its skin night obliterates the day and all the fun begins shadow boxing with yourself just seems to get you nowhere you dont want to cheat when playing solitaire curtain call and lights grow dim tragedy, love all lie within each player takes his chance to play and lives to fight another day we're coming up from the deep the lizard sheds its skin the night obliterates the day and all the fun begins shadow boxing with yourself just seems to get you nowhere you dont want to cheat when playing solitaire curtain call and lights grow dim tragedy, love all lie within each player takes his chance to play and lives to fight, lives to fight, another day another day another day
