The General Songtext
von Elsinore

A variance to see me smile
The evidence is painted by my eyes
The times belie the other side
The worry lines imply
No stake put in the words
It′s better to be seen than to be heard
I find the line beside being trite has been a bit obscured


Now and again I feel itch for taking flight
A scratch and I'm off chasing the sun
The fear is enough to hold me above the fear inside

A second chance to see me dance
My way across a second-story lie
With the end in sight, a burning light on all the shit I′ll buy
Foremost of my flaws
To worry on effect despite the cause
It's not about the where, but getting there that warrants my applause

Whatever to win is seemingly the mantra of our times
But, ours is not a race meant to be won
With our head in the clouds I'll chasing my dreams a while
