The Granite Shore - The Management lyrics

[Verse 1a] If you trust in me, I'll not let you down; In you I know at last I know I've found What I'd been looking for: Simplicity We will set the world alight [Verse 1b] The leather gear will have to go; People get the wrong idea, you know And though the leash allows Some latitude You must be on stage on time [Chorus] Each night; Watching you from the wings Pulling each other's strings As we spin arm-in-arm And the spell binds us tight; Here's where you wanted to go And at the end of the show I'll turn out the lights [Verse 2a] All my worthlessness went up in smoke; I forgave the jibes and tasteless jokes At least a tenth of them For still I felt You would shield me from the storm [Verse 2b] Our vices grip, both yours and mine; It is not by choice that I'm inclined To seek the cannon's mouth Amid the libel laws You must be in court on time [Chorus] Each night; Watching you from the wings Pulling each other's strings As we spin arm-in-arm And the spell binds us tight; Here's where you wanted to go And at the end of the show I'll turn out the lights
