Savage Dance

Savage Dance
This is the moment of truth
And I am a seer or a fumbling youth
This is the promise of the rope
The only place that I can hope
I can't find the words
I can't take the chance
I can't relate
Can't play the part

And life is vapour in the sky
A trail of breadcrumbs leading nowhere
This is the promise of the knife
The only time I feel alive
I can't find the words
I can't play the part
Can't learn the moves
To the savage dance
This is the moment of truth
Standing in petrol
lighting matches for you
This is the promise of the rope
The only place the I can hope
I can't find the words
I can't play the part
Can't learn the moves
To the savage dance
Scarred by the moment, scarred by the moment
Savage Dance.
