Misfortunate Sons - Temporary Freedom lyrics

There’s a house at the end of the road

It’s been beaten down; it’s been empty for years,

But it’s still filled with thoughts of the people who have lived there

So just find another vice to occupy your precious little time

You’ll find a reason for everything, but I promise you God’s not

Responsible

What’s it gonna be today? You know you can’t make any of this last

Through tonight


The ghosts of those who left are here to stay

The happy ending is replaced by pain

Now you’re standing on the edge

Just waiting for Death to make his claim


Dip your feet into the water, and remember how it used to feel

If you could only get just one more taste, well then what?


This is all that you have left; this is all that you’ll ever know

This is all that you have left, so why don’t you just pull the plug

This is all that you have left; this is all that you’ll ever know

This is all that you have left, so why don’t you just pull the plug


The ghosts of those who left are here to stay

The happy ending is replaced by pain

Now you’re standing on the edge

Just waiting for Death to make his claim


Oh, what a tragedy; the lies have become reality

You’ve suspended your disbelief, and there’s nothing left to see


Now the spotlight is on you, but the crowd has gone away

Rest your head in the dirt; I’m sure it will keep you warm for tonight
