Slaves of Pleasure

There are hundreds of people out this evening
But I'm sitting here all alone
My expectation got the better of me
I'm not as spiked as I was an hour ago
The magnetism the synergism
I'm too tired to play anymore
This game is too long, this game is so wrong
But this particular trap
Leaves me wanting for more

The slaves of pleasure bring me here tonight
They've pushed me in the crowd and labored in my mind
Shoving drink after drink in my hands in my mouth
Painting pictures of heaven and bringing colors to sounds
Where the corners of the room mesh with the edge of my soul
I'm blind as they lead me to their castles of gold
Spinning way too fast but moving much too slow
I've done whatever they ask, they've taken me home

I'm tanked up turned on and cold
But I'm comfortable with this
It maybe too easy and a bit sad
But I'll take the risk
I'll jeopardize it all
With the kings and the queens of fun
Answer that voice inside your heart
And take your place on my throne

The slaves of pleasure bring me here tonight
They've pushed me in the crowd and labored in my mind
Shoving drink after drink in my hands in my mouth
Painting pictures of heaven and bringing colors to sounds
Where the corners of the room mesh with the edge of my soul
I'm blind as they lead me to their castles of gold
Spinning way too fast but moving much too slow
I've done whatever they ask, so they've taken me home
