Rose Crest - Effigy

A case of pessimistic world view
You say we gotta get away fast
I think a miracle has come due
But it appears we hit an impasse
A flock of sinners on a dark street
Adolescent dream and cheap laughs
We never knew if we could find peace
I know that I can never go back
I'm sick of feeling maybe I should have said sorry,
Let it be, take a rest
Your obligations to stay here
(and keep your head above just enough for you to breathe the despair)
Feel some comfort as it crumbles at your feet
We all wallow in defeat
Hang each mistake at the gate like an effigy
I wanna break a law or something
I wanna ball and never need cash
Who cares if everybody's ugly
We're all rats just digging from the same trash
Let it be, take a rest
Your obligations to stay here
Feel some comfort as it crumbles at your feet
We all wallow in defeat
Hang each mistake at the gate like an effigy
In the meantime, step on a landmine
Let it all rot, reading past due
I wish it could of been a better story
But this life is shallow and boring
Let it be, take a rest
Your obligations to stay here
(and keep your head above just enough for you to breathe the despair)
Feel some comfort as it crumbles at your feet
We all wallow in defeat
Hang each mistake at the gate like an effigy
