08. Idiot smile

So I sat and I waited, patiently for the years to pass
with the violence of each day, of each coming day

When they thought I was running away,
I was merely gathering speed
I was merely gathering speed my friend

I did my best to avoid you
I made all efforts not to see her
my silence says too much
has shades of absence and the wrecks of your touch

Has your breath stopped lately?
do you not see it clear?
the life you knew laughs from the window
oh Idiot smile where have you gone to?
trust not the devil when your hands are clear

I'll tell the truth for once, this time;
My lies have aged to perfection

Oh my euphoria has its nerve in you
Oh my euphoria has its nerve in you

Has your breath stopped lately?
do you not see it clear?
the life you knew laughs from the window
oh Idiot smile where have you gone to?
trust not the devil when your hands are clear

Oh my euphoria has its nerve in you
Oh my euphoria has its nerve in you
