The crystal balls spinning in the card house tonight Love letters burn smoke signals take flight We’re sleeping alone in separate rooms I’m praying for courage to crawl back to you
I’m lost in the fog of the oracle’s breath A whispered prediction of time I have left Our egos are dancing around the flame Wild eyed effigies passing the blame
We’re speaking in code and we’re walking the line And we are forever falling behind Starved for attention, a lovers affection Just a passing glance
Your honesty’s too much, to digest in all one night So please excuse me while I wash it down with a glass of cheap wine See, I’m in love with shadows, cast upon a void And I’m indebted to a wanted man who set out to destroy
