Crimesmith Lyrics by Manhattan

2013

I walk these streets alone through a sea of empty faces staring blank and motionless. The lights are on but no ones home
A bitter chill in the air tonight is the only to keep me warm
Inside the mind of a lullaby but the words have lost their worth
Black Dahlia's lullaby's the darkest horse of endless days
You're the skeleton in my closet. I'm the elephant in your room
I wear my teeth on a string that's tied around my neck
I'm bleeding from the gums, from every word I ever said
I speak in truths, I speak in riddles and whispers
Don't call me a liar. Don't call me anything
I was taught a lesson, that is different from most
Lying on this street, dying for no reason at all
Shaking in despair I was shown that the world ONLY MAKES SENSE when you force it to
We are responsible for each and everyone
That's part of being human after all
Rest your weary head
Nothing to talk about nothing to be said
I was taught a lesson, that is different from most
Lying on this street, dying for no reason at all
Shaking in despair I was shown that the world only makes sense when you force it to
Truth is a whore
She'll belong to any man for an hour if the price is right
When you're time is done you're back to where you started
You're back to where you began. Back to when you were alone
Truth is a whore
Truth is a whore
Truth is a whore
Truth is a god damn whore
