But A Fleeting Illness Lyrics - Singles - Say Anything

here we are back to play the same old games 

as if things never changed 

the blood still tastes the same 

ash to ash, back to back, and dusk to dusk 

you look so upper-crust 

so rich with broken trust 

can you hear your conscience's crying 

wash the fields of dead and dieing 

ex-acquaintances 

jogging over skulls and leg bones 

drown the crunch out with your headphones 

if you're so rich then pay for what you've done 

under the influence 

under the influence 

keep me off the road when you're around me 

under the influence 

under the influence 

my love, you make me sick 

there you are a tool of their firmiliar game 

your lies still smell the same 

your kind are still to blame 

upper class 

this machine you built to last 

you'd better spend it fast 

i'm about to break the spell you cast 

i'll bury you next to your ego 

and mark the grave to burn when we go 

up in flames again 

now i'm not afraid to kill this 

you are but a fleeting illness 

the emptier, the easier to break 

let the clock spin sweetly on it's way 

and your face will blur and fade away 

wash your hands, they reek of what you've done 

just a fraud, just having fun 

under the influence 

under the influence 

keep me off the road when you're around me 

under the influence 

so insignificant 

my love you make me 

oh, now dance for me you fucking puppet
