happy melody with angry lyrics
Bound For Darker Days
Thrashing through
The delusion of
What I think I’m owed
To wish upon, to stumble on
And all along
I should have know
Nothing’s, on the way
Despite the promises we make
Fall down, and pray for change
Flames of hope lead us astray
BOUND – for darker days (we are)
BOUND – for darker days…
Once I met a man, who
Had his share of dreams
The world beat them out of him
A sadder sight, I’d never seen
He took my hand, and closed his eyes
And whispered in the dark
The cradle of misfortune
Rocks for us all
Carry on, pretentious fucks
Draped in your fool’s gold
Don’t sell me your, silver words
Tis a shame you still don’t know
I am what you see
Optimism exploited
Dissonance of innocence
The cross you bear
I am what you need
For I bring a fair warning
Dominance of ignorance
Will take you there
