Текст песни Vanity Trip - The Ballroom Thieves

Here I am, I'm a man in a million
So get used to the strange and estrange the familiar
I'm here to take your money (give it up)
My words, well they all sound the same
I don't carry laughter through the flame
Just a spill of color (and dumb luck)

But it's getting harder not to see myself up on the tv
It's getting harder not to see myself up in the clouds
Ain't nobody ever mention anything that could save me no more
I won't wait by your door
Less a lion than the liar that the people always took me for

It's a global stage
With a narrow spotlight
Shining like a diamond on my vanity trip
Love is a number you can torture and twist
Your heart is a muscle the size of your fist
You never risk your life, still end up losing it

But it's getting harder not to see myself up on the tv
It's getting harder not to see myself up in the clouds
Ain't nobody ever mention anything that could save me no more
I won't wait by your door

Cause I'm living, living, living on my own time baby
Living, living, living on my own time now
Living, living, ain't nobody else who could save me no more
I won't wait by your door
Less a lion than the liar that the people always took me for

I am the helix in the hangman's noose
The shepherd's a wolf and the wolves are loose
Born a million men, but I will die as one

You better run, run, run

Cause I'm living, living, living on my own time baby
Living, living, living on my own time now
Living, living, ain't nobody else who could save me no more
I won't wait by your door
You won't wait by my door
I won't wait by your door
Less a lion than the liar that the people always took me for
