Church or State Lyrics by The Velvet Teen

All is Illusory

0

Did i learn to hate
From church or state
Who chose for me, my palate
Who knows, who cares
I keep on thinking
Should i give up drinking
Will i wake up breathing tomorrow
But every moment foments till throwing it in
Where i'm going
No one will follow
I burn my candle
My soul, i sell
What is money
I can't tell
An empty shell
Which fasting or feasting
Will pass like a bee sting
In rash and the riesling i swallow
And every moment
Ferments till throwing up in
The closest thing at hand and hollow
Going away for the evening
Another day, dead and gone
No mind
Your arms around me
Feel safe, second to none
So dull
Pointless
I lose focus
And pretend not to notice
