Enter at Own Risk

Enter at Own Risk [Explicit] (4:12)
(M. Lane)

Yesterday saw a million stars
Illuminate the way
Lit the sky, soaring high
No clouds or storms to miss

So easy to march along
Following the words
No flags flown, no fired flares
Checking off everything on the list

Overdramatic
So systematic
Who wrote the rules

Undiplomatic
Ever erratic
The clown plays the fool

A perfect view and a place for two
Beginnings never see an end
Spotlight on a day kept dim
Should have stirred up something more

Time can heal and often does
Another try, another lie
Footsteps rouse unsuspecting sleep
There to fucking slam the door

Overdramatic
So systematic
Who wrote the rules

Undiplomatic
Ever erratic
The clown plays the fool

Follow the sinners
Follow the lies
Follow your doctors orders
Don’t be surprised

Enter the cage
Stepped into fire
Poised to feed on
Naive desire

A masked cry
Then I’ll be
On my way
At least I’m free

A dull blade can still be sharp
But only cuts so deep
Drags out the inevitable
Never a matter of if but when

The ball bounces to a different court
And rebounds out of control
You can’t illuminate the darkest void
Now watch it play all over again

Overdramatic
So systematic
Who writes your rules

Undiplomatic
Ever erratic
A new pawn, the fucking fool

Follow the sinners
Follow the lies
Follow your doctors orders
Don’t be surprised
