Try to remember those ancient evenings
When all we had was just enough
Now the pretender knows why the king is screaming
The grief was finally just to much
.
I’m going to,
Ride with the idol
Like a creature on display
Tied to the bottom of a cage
Ride with the idol
But it wont turn out the same
I know they wont blow out the flame
.
Over my shoulder, I know their waiting
Their dirty hands are everywhere
And as they get closer all the pretence is fading
The face beneath the skin is bare
.
So now I,
Ride with the idol
Like a creature on display
Tied to the bottom of a cage, oh yeah
Ride with the idol
But it wont turn the same
I know they wont blow out the flame
.
I can never, learn to say no
Won’t they ever let me go.
.
I’m going to
Ride with the idol
Like a creature on display
Tied to the bottom of a cage
Oh yeah yeah
Ride with the idol
But it wont turn the same
I know they wont blow out the flame
Ride with the idol
Like a creature on display
Tied to the bottom of a cage
Oh yeah yeah
Ride with the idol
But it wont turn out the same
I know they wont blow out the flame (fade)
