Piano Exit

Cut the engine, throw the keys from the ignition
I should quit while I'm ahead
I've been pretending that I've never feared the ending
There's a stranger at my bed
Sorry, Father, I took a penny from the water
Made a wish to start again
Forgive the question, it's just my way of expression
But do I look good in red?

Fuck it, I like it anyway
I'll save my grace for another day
For something I care about
For something I feel

Left soaked in wine then bled dry
Atop a hollow piano

Throw a wrench in plans of divine intervention
They must already know me well
It's not obsession, I might call it self-possession
I will kiss but never tell
I'm overdressed and did I make a good impression?
I will soon see for myself
My rendition of the great human condition
Is something biblical as Hell

I am kicked from a pale horse
I'm skinny arms in a holy war
At least I've got those who love me
Fuck, when did they leave?

Left soaked in wine then bled dry
Hollowed out my piano mind
Suspended in strings, those wicked things
Keys and dear crowd, play me out

Play me out
