Choice Millionaire
POETS OF THE FALL · Jealous Gods 2014 · Track 09 of 10
Cars in the night, cut through the mist Baby suns for eyes, diamonds on your wrist Twist in the scheme, a permeating theme A violin crescendo
Dark violet skies over seas of lead Hard violent fights, red sun will set Like a rivulet, like a tear beget A clear innuendo
Silence of the mind ever deafening Rain on the roof ever prattling Straddling truth for the pain you gain for pain Some bill of rights
Daring getaways, steamy masquerades Famine of all wars, whores and escapades Jack of Spades in silk brocades Velvet nights in city lights
It's a wide wide world out there And life can be a love affair Or a cage of sheer despair You're a choice millionaire
It's a wide wide world out there You can travel in your easy chair So build your castles in the air You're a choice millionaire
Because no one needs any more confessions
Shadows cast without a streak of fear Moments past, held so dear A lock of hair, a touch of lip A lashing whip
Subliminal love for the ones you hate LOL as I abbreviate Alleviate if you can relate to the pink slip Of love unzipped
Minutes burning till seconds pop Silhouettes dancing till the curtains drop Stop before you lose your mojo Your fear of heights
Hot passion flares every pipe dream Concussion, blindness of a regime A scream incites, the air ignites The city lights
It's a wide wide world out there...
So put a lacquer on your hunger Parade the sky that you're under Without heedless impressions No one needs more confessions [x2]
It's a wide wide world out there...
