Текст песни Strange Lot - Seth Sentry

A faint ghost through the raindrops

Pace a frozen train stop
My brain throbs as it wanders to my day job
On my way to the place that I hate most
Strange though how I′m still afraid of getting laid off
And every day feels the same with a different date
And every face looks as plain as an empty frame.
So sick of waiting for the painter
To begin to paint the plain away
For now a testament to emptiness and.
Thoughts ricochet, through my fickle pickled brain
Rain trickles down the grimace
Same image different name
Fault searcher my soul's an impulse purchase
Round here we serve beer not purpose

"Step Aside"

Chorus:
When I wake up, my mind is full of dread, in the evening sleep as though i′m dead.I'm so tired, sad and lonely, happy when I'm dreaming only. Wanna break free aint escaping here cause I′m tied down paralyzed with fear. Every days the same but everyone has changed I cant let it side, better step aside.

Hey all look so morose soaked overcoats, hope comatosed
Folks know the ropes, don′t row the boat, just float
Don't delay, don′t you go and chase the blown away
Umbrella cross the motorway, tell them keep a poker face.
For the joker's sake, hold your plate steady while we load it up
And smoke your face pretty while your throat is cut
Yeah, things that go bump, know what′s up,
Only showing love through the drugs and the modem plug
Moments past only last in photographs show some gums fool the picture homie no he couldn't give a lonely fuck.
See they don′t smile they just show their teeth
And sit below the streets on broken rollercoaster seats
With today's valid ticket like this trip
Is where they're all supposed to be
But don′t be difficult the warning posters read
And if it all amounts to this, then all aboard and count your chips
A flock of dirty pigeons fighting over water fountain sips.

"Step Aside"

Chorus:
When I wake up, my mind is full of dread, in the evening sleep as though i′m dead.I'm so tired, sad and lonely, happy when I′m dreaming only. Wanna break free aint escaping here cause I'm tied down paralyzed with fear. Every days the same but everyone has changed I cant let it side, better step aside.

Now I could learn to hide a smirk behind a smile,
In a nice designer shirt, life of work, buy a pile of dirt
And plant a house in it
Past the shanty town limits, where the angry crowds picket
Pick a hand-me-down image.
And be an average bloke, the same person that you know
That hates work but has to go, to pay for the back he broke toiling in the fields, what′s the point of putting poison in their meals
When a coin will have them oiling up the wheels
For the rich man's chariot, they′re carrying
A figjam arrogance and shrink-wrapped happiness.

"Hand it out"
Same shit different brand name,
"Gather around"
Same slip different cash claim,
Wait,
Welcome to the day it was rocket science
And watch grey become a ying-yang compromise.

Throw the canary down the mineshaft with a gas mask
For the last laugh,
Tip your bar staff

"Step Aside"

Chorus:
When I wake up, my mind is full of dread, in the evening sleep as though i'm dead.I'm so tired, sad and lonely, happy when I′m dreaming only. Wanna break free aint escaping here cause I′m tied down paralyzed with fear. Every days the same but everyone has changed I cant let it side, better step aside.

(Ooooo, ohh o)

(Yeah yeah)

And welcome to the day that daisy chain,
Breaks from the weight and strain,
But everything remains the same.

And welcome to the day that the painter came and
Astounded every critic with a thousand
Different shades of grey.

And welcome to the day that the sweat from every brow
Was ours to keep
And every pawn was proudly crowned a queen

And welcome to the night that while the captain slept,
We abandoned ship with our lanterns lit singing

"Step Aside"

Chorus:
When I wake up, my mind is full of dread, in the evening sleep as though i'm dead.I′m so tired, sad and lonely, happy when I'm dreaming only. Wanna break free aint escaping here cause I′m tied down paralyzed with fear. Every days the same but everyone has changed I cant let it side, better step aside.
