Only Crime - Eyes of the World lyrics

Locked inside A step in the sun Losing time But controlling the one That feral genius Is sick to the touch To sever a secret We love it too much I see the innocent swell Then they put me back in my cell There's no permanent law I can't forget what I saw That's right What do I know? And maybe just about the time that I catch my breath I remember all the things that led down to it You tell me it's wrong To try to pretend This subversion Won't happen again The weight of indifference It swings for the fence At least we can try Forever in debt And the eyes of the world turn pale Don't tell me how the price will fall justified on time Just a measure of the proxy line stealing what's been said Depreciated in the righteous vein sold on down the line We're keeping weight on the arterial flow a static piece in time
