Sliding scales and concessions
Is what they’re aspiring to
Your alignment on this is key
They cannot deceive me
I cannot be lied to
We cannot be seen as frail
And it’s killing me
In the saddle again another long lost friend
Asking for something that we never had as kids
Interrupted now resumed
And the years have driven a wedge into
Training me to never open my door again
What the world gives
It never takes away
When it seems nothing can be easy
Take a step back in line
Facing front
No more looking back
The story’s spun
It’s done and done
Long road ahead
No wasted steps
It’s a mind trap that’s been sprung again
Through this fog you have to see
They cannot deceive me
I cannot be lied to
We cannot be seen as frail
And it’s killing me
No permission no denial
Watching the bait spinning in my sights again
Interrupted now resumed
Then the years have driven a wedge into
Training me to never open my door again
What the world gives it never takes away
When it seems nothing can be easy
Take a step back in line
Facing front
No more looking back
The story’s spun
It’s done and done
Long road ahead
No wasted steps
They are absolutely out to get us
Is what they’re aspiring to
Your alignment on this is key
They cannot deceive me
I cannot be lied to
We cannot be seen as frail
And it’s killing me
When it seems nothing can be easy
Take a step back in line
Facing front
No more looking back
The story’s spun
It’s done and done
Long road ahead
No wasted steps
