Melocoda
My feet are sewn in the soil like seeds in the earth
Head's just drifting above the water
These eyes of mine with their visions divine
I begin to wonder: do they wander?
So sinister are the shadows that posses my mind
Masks they make of men
Cast away by the howling winds of rhythm and rhyme
Only to rear their ugly heads again
There's a new sheriff in town
Who dares look his way
The last man to stare him down
Never saw the light of day
I see your lies, so baby won't you give it to me straight
You want me to dance with the devil
But I don't even know his name
Stolen glances slow the tide as she sways
The crowd, so entranced, stand as one
Her waters so sweet they'll wash your scars away
But your sins, can they be undone?
Stolen glances keep her coming back for more
The one her heart is after
"A faithful servant" said the troubadour
But alas, alas a lousy master
There's a new sheriff in town
Who dares look his way
The last man to stand him down
Never saw the light of day
I see your lies, so baby won't you give it to me straight
You want me to dance with the devil
But I ain't gonna play your game
Head's just drifting above the water
These eyes of mine with their visions divine
I begin to wonder: do they wander?
So sinister are the shadows that posses my mind
Masks they make of men
Cast away by the howling winds of rhythm and rhyme
Only to rear their ugly heads again
There's a new sheriff in town
Who dares look his way
The last man to stare him down
Never saw the light of day
I see your lies, so baby won't you give it to me straight
You want me to dance with the devil
But I don't even know his name
Stolen glances slow the tide as she sways
The crowd, so entranced, stand as one
Her waters so sweet they'll wash your scars away
But your sins, can they be undone?
Stolen glances keep her coming back for more
The one her heart is after
"A faithful servant" said the troubadour
But alas, alas a lousy master
There's a new sheriff in town
Who dares look his way
The last man to stand him down
Never saw the light of day
I see your lies, so baby won't you give it to me straight
You want me to dance with the devil
But I ain't gonna play your game
