lyrics

Did you ever notice
(Like you’d even care)
Ambition and friendship
Are a dissonant pair?
We couldn’t find the language
As hard as we tried
A spell for your anguish
One money can’t buy
Saddest thing
And I can’t find a reason why
But I didn’t know I was losing my soul
Until I made my little girl cry
Power over compassion
Darkness over the light
I caught your scent down-wind
Not a man
But a devil in your own right
It’s all a bit much
Your laughter is a crutch
Your smile is a dagger
And you weaponize trust
It’s all a bit much
When lives that you touch
Are turning to smoke,
Ashes and such…
