Modern Instincts - You'll Never Get Away with It Lyrics

Fog on the bridge
The clouds in the sky
I know a place where the air is grey
And troubles multiply
It must be nice
To go home like them
Please close the door, but not from this side
This house is condemned

You said please don't give up on me when I had my doubts
Now all of that is off of the table and the lights are out

Fingertips together
Lips in an arc
Yanked off the stage with a cane around my neck
A commemorative mark
Now you've said a mouthful
A nefarious plot
Until the end I'll remain doubtful
'Til the blood underneath my sutures coagulates and clots

You said please don't give up on me when I had my doubts
Now all of that is off of the table and the lights are out

It slipped through the cracks in front of our face
The ones that we saw but just couldn't wait
To fix and repair, it's as good as new
'Cause all that I wear is the straight jacket gift from you
(You said you'd be happy if you looked like that)
The straight jacket gift from you
(But I know you'd only be happy if the sun turned black)
