The Spoils of the Spoiled
Lyricist:Matthew Patrick Pryor
There was honor among the thieves The only truth I could believe But, when the lies applied to me and mine The better left unsaid
We could write the hit parade Outside the masquerade The headache comes in tidal waves The spoils of the spoiled, the spoils of the spoiled
The lines of history became the scenery It's strictly an accessory, an image to uphold But it's all in fun and sin until someone calls it in The cycle comes around again
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com But I'm older now and don't you know I've figured out the antidote It overwhelms, engulfed in smoke It's all we can to cope
Goddamn these idle hands as hindsight can Our hopes and plans are unfulfilled It's over It's overwhelming
There's a proper place and time Though the bags under your eyes They don't lie, they don't lie They don't lie
