The Epic Song Songtext
von Harlequin Jones

The Epic Song Songtext

I′ve been keeping hushed,
I've been staying mum as of late
It′s not a matter of losing voice
Or having nothing to say
I've got a mouth that sows the seeds
For every half truth the land sprouts up weeds
For every day done another spore's fed
Till rather than banter, there′s briar instead

Don′t let that one leave that hell of a home
Keep it to add to the skeleton's wardrobe
His closets packed, more or less just the same
Sewn lips stitched shut where secrets are safe
You know I was a liar, I′m out and over shame
I had a cross to carry, I had a head to hang
Ox with cloven hoof, harlot without her pay
I'm up there on that list, I′m down there in their rank

Like a game of Russian roulette, lacking that lucky bullet
The thrill is killed when nothing comes from it


Have all of my efforts
And therein lack of
For pain or pleasure
Been in vain?
I'm so vain

Its never enough, lips curl from smile to snarl so fast
She′s cast us in shade, oh the shame
It seems to be its safe to say: I'm setting sail at storms at bay
To rhythmic childish singsong steps
Ashes to dust my kingdom's spent
Sometimes I swear I hear her moan
Sung to the tune of a mute tone
Play dead, go for the throat
Singe off the ends, make that spark smoke

I wanted to see the good so bad
I′d cross out the stumps to black out the past
Now I don′t wait for love or hate
I just, I just, I just...


Fuck eating, fuck sleep, less I've got less I need
I′m out of the game but still up on my feet
Who needs a hand in this process of dealing
I've got everything I need
You know me best, I don′t study I cheat
I don't need luck, I′ve got tricks up my sleeve
Rigged dice, darts, chips, cards
I've got everything I need

Have all of my efforts
And therein lack of
For pain or pleasure
Been in vain?

It's never enough, lips curl from smile to snarl so fast
She′s cast us in shade
Oh the shame
