Snake Oil and Holy Water

Singer:Parkway Drive

Album:Atlas

You want a piece of my mind?

There is no peace to find!

This is all of your doubt

repaid in kind

I am alone in crowded rooms

I am a ghost in forgotten tombs

Widow maker

you're no company to keep.

Cause you can fool some people

sometimes

But you can't fool the world for the rest of your life

You can fool some people

sometimes

But you can't fool the world…

Nobody notices! Nobody cares!

The curtain falls to no one

nowhere

Nobody notices! Nobody cares!

As the curtain falls…

Soulless - spineless

Cut from the beggar's cloth

You fill your skull with their shit till it runs from your mouth.

Heartless - carcass

I've seen more life in dead men's eyes

I've heard more truths alone with the night.

And I'd rather believe in nothing than believe in a fucking lie!

I'd sooner fail one thousand times than regret I never tried!

Cause you can fool some people

sometimes

But you can't fool the world for the rest of your life

You can fool some people

sometimes

But you can't fool the world…

You can't fool us all!

You howl at the world

but speak a dead language

You're selling your soul

but no one is buying

You pray to your gods of fashion and industry

Heads in the clouds

but you live on your fucking knees.

On your knees!

Nobody notices! Nobody cares!

The curtain falls to no one

nowhere

Nobody notices! Nobody cares!

As the curtain fucking falls…

Soulless - spineless

Cut from the beggar's cloth

You fill your head with their shit till it runs from your mouth.

Heartless - carcass

I've seen more life in dead men's eyes

I've heard more truths alone with the night.

Alone with the night!

No! No peace to find!
