Album: Silent Rider

Fingers to the warmth
Call upon my name
Burn off all the skin
The flesh is all too tempting
Breathe in through your nose
And back out through your teeth
Slip me the right pill
The cough is just a dead weight
It takes a kind of man to sell a dream like that
I was a kinder man when I could dream like that
It takes a toll on me to see you beg for hell
I was a safer man when I ate up that sell
I can fix your speech
Loosen all regret
Engorge yourself on flames
Let them speed you home
Take your comfort with
What you couldn’t see
And extend your hands
To applaud the fall out
It takes a kind of man to sell a dream like that
I was a kinder man when I could dream like that
It takes a toll on me to see you beg for hell
I was a safer man when I ate up that sell
