NINE LIVES
Music and lyrics by Riitis
I've seen some darker places in my time.
I've played Robinson Crusoe in my mind.
Enter you the evil dressed to kill.
I've never seen a lie so pretty and I never will.
I must admit, I fell for it for a minute.
Hell, I was mesmerized for quite a bit.
Nine lives - hangin' to the last one.
Nine lives - you're tryin' to pull a fast one.
Nine lives - sick 'n' tired of yours.
You're smart at painting pictures around lies.
You could sell a Trojan horse to Greeks, maybe twice.
Y'know, futures can be build merely on trust.
The shaky house of cards of yours - all twinkle and stardust.
And I don't really miss you all that much.
Still miles away from not holding a grudge.
Nine lives - hangin' to the last one.
Nine lives - you're tryin' to pull a fast one.
Nine lives - sick 'n' tired of yours.
Nine lives - approximately my size.
Nine lives - some of them I'd live twice.
Nine lives - none o' them was yours.
