Artillery shells and parlour games
Dragged through the mud, it's all the same
We're coming crazy but out to lunch
Our future sold but not for much
With steadfast hopes in stubborn times
Perceptions skewed to cross the lines
And all in time, a tradgedy
To lose the things you had to be
You forced it 'til it disappeared
Within your doubts and all these fears
Never once to be yourself again
In stranger times we knew our place
To hide behind the disobeyed
But no one dares to try it now
While every line gets leaked somehow
Artillery shells and parlour games
Dragged through the mud, it's all the same
It's all the same as everything before
You forced it 'til it disappeared
Within your doubts and all these fears
Never once to be yourself again
It comes so fast until it's gone
In everything that you've done wrong
Along with all the lines you still befriend
You can't define the lines you still defend
Nothing all that complicated
Oh there's nothing to explain
It's in your head, it's in my brains
I think we've finally gone insane
You forced it 'til it disappeared
Within your doubts and all these fears
Never once to be yourself again
It comes so fast until it's gone
In everything that you've done wrong
Along with all the lines you still befriend
You can't define the lines you still defend
Dragged through the mud, it's all the same
Artillery shells and parlourgames again
