Dread It

Round and round the rumours fly

Your promises were just a lie

The handshake made you shiver

That I could tell clearly I was standing right behind you

Today it all went up into the blue

Not quite far enough you promised us the moon

Suddenly it became absolutely evident

A mocking bird, a pointed grin

The masquerade was growing thin

The laugh is always on the loser

Today it all went up into the blue

Not quite far enough you promised us the moon

Hence with you away your sun has set

Pack your things and beings

And never ever come back

Hence with you away your sun has set

Pack your things and beings

You promised something you simply could not keep

undisputed. A midnight grief

And I know you cannot sleep either

For the fear of, uhm, waking up

Dread it

Today it all went up into the blue

Not quite far enough you promised us the moon

Hence with you away your sun has set

Pack your things and beings

And never ever come back

Godspeed to the con man

Farewell! Don’t think we will beckon

You promised something that you could not keep

Hence with you away your sun has set

Pack your things and beings

And never ever come back

Godspeed to the con man

Farewell! Don’t think we will beckon

You promised something that you could not keep
