The Partner

Did you ever notice
Like you'd even care
Ambition and friendship
Are a dissonant pair?

We couldn't find the language
As hard as we tried
A spell for your anguish
One money can't buy

Saddest thing
And I can't find a reason why
But I didn't know I was losing my soul
Until I made my little girl cry

Power over compassion
Darkness over the light
I caught your scent down-wind
Not a man, but a devil in your own right
Power over compassion
Darkness over the light
I caught your scent down-wind
Not a man, but a devil in your own right

It's all a bit much
Your laughter is a crutch
Your smile is a dagger
And you weaponize trust

It's all a bit much
(Did you ever wonder)
When lives that you touch
(Did you ever care)
Are turning to smoke
(Ambition and friendship)
Ashes and such
(Are a dissonant pair)

It's all a bit much
(We couldn't find the language)
With all that you touch
(As hard as we tried)
Turning to smoke
(A spell for your anguish)
Ashes and such
(One money can't buy)

Turning to smoke
Turning to smoke
Turning to smoke
