The Strums Lyrics - Time To Die - The Dodos

The image on the board 

Selling things we can't afford 

But we're still buying up in a frenzy 

Cause our hearts just yearn for more 

Is this sin, all he want? 

Is offerings we got? 

But soon you'll be overrating eyes 

Oh people they can't be good 

When what comes next on the market should 

But we go on because its understood 

But you can only hope, when they say that they want you 

Yeah, they'll say that they want you, when they don't 

It's like a chandelier 

It's like a fountain head 

The strings are all there 

A chain link fence to convince you 

That you're never aware 

For things that which you spare 

Are at cause they don't care about you 

Don't care of what you've done 

You're fooled by everyone 

But soon you'll go get your daddy's gun 

And go out to recollect 

From all the guards that you put in debt 

It's time you learn that you cannot change 

But you forget 

But you will always think when they say that they want you, 

When they say that they want you, that they don't 

You wait but somedays never come 

Your prophesying here is done 

You're only left with what you beg 

In toward you can, begone your way 

The others wait till they're okay 

They're only left with what they beg, beg, beg 

So children kill your teachers 

Kill your parents, then kill your preachers 

Because you know, that they only will doubt you 

When they start to lose their features 

It's okay that there gone 

Torturing you is all they want 

And lesson learned, now lesson taught 

You just know what they forgot 

Cause they didn't get to find out what you sought
