lyrics

Crawl back hide your face
You don’t wanna show it here anyway
By reason of all of this treason and trickery
Sit up straight raise a glass
Pay a little homage to an imperfect past
To the light that lit your way
And when they ask
Where you got your mask
Don’t A\VOID the task
Of telling them the truth
You took it from the light
Without a proper fight
To hide the many faces of your youth

So when your dirty little thoughts start to simmer
Take your dirty little finger off the dimmer
When unsolvable problems begin to figure
Keep your dirty little finger off the trigger

Reel back write your will
We’ve been looking for a little pest to kill
By way of betrayal and beckoning bravery
Stand up tall turn around
Tranquilly tiptoe off this hallowed ground
By the light that lit your way
I’ll shine it bright
I’ll hold it right
So you don’t stumble
On your way out

Who turned the light on?
Who lit your way?

I bet you think of me every day
And it probably pains you to think that way
I’ll never relieve you of having no words to say
What’s mine is mine every part
Like a shooting star through your heart
Burning up on reentry and sending you back to the start
The price you pay
Arrives today
So please get out of the way

It's hard to choose a favorite track here! Klaus really killed it in every way - AND WOW! His cover of Bjork's "Army Of Me" was bold and flawless - it's not easy to cover Bjork! I really love this cover album. One of the best ones of the series! embracethevoid_
