There's a buzz in the streets,
There's stir in the seas
There's a noise in the ether
It's right in front of our eyes
but the sweetest of lies
is the hardest to wake from
(It's) in the thoughts that we think
In the water we drink
In the music we dance to
And the rhythm goes on,
Though the rhythm is wrong
We know
Cause we all know what is going on
But we close our eyes you see
And we all know how to play along
But we're losing so hear my plea
Don't let your guard down
Don't let your guard down
Don't let your guard down
Don't let your guard down
There's no way to maintain
These games in the grey
It's a losing religion
There's a knock on our door
but we're out on the floor
Now who's going to answer?
It's not the time to hold back
And hide from the fact
The damage is done
Cause if this rhythm goes on
Then the rhythm is gone
We know
Come what may,
I finally found a place where we could stay
It's where we poured the whiskey on the grave
Come what may
Come what may
Come what may
I finally found a place where we could stay
And we all know what is going on
But we close our eyes you see
And we all know how to play along
But we're losing so hear my plea
And we all know what is going on
But we close our eyes you see
And everybody knows how to play along
But we're losing so hear my plea
Don't let your guard down
Don't let your guard down
Don't let your guard down
Don't let your guard down
Don't let your guard down
Don't let your guard down
Don't let your guard down
Don't let your guard down
Don't let your guard down
Don't let your guard down
Don't let your guard down
Don't let your guard down
Don't let your guard down
