Tricks

You'll see me smile but only once
Upon a time, upon a time
For I am not easily
Oh, satisfied, satisfied

When life gets hard and you feel numb
But you're burned and scarred, you're burned and scarred
Straight to the bar
Don't know what for
My forbidden fruit, my forbidden fruit

The flashing lights are blinding
The sounds of ivory blinding
Makes it all
Makes it all

The highs in life I'm finding
The lows so intertwining
Makes it all
Makes it all not worth it

A man appears
On the dark blue lane
Oh, black beauty, black beauty
With a bag of tricks I couldn't resist
Oh, black beauty, black beauty

With wide noon eyes
And a view so new
Kaleidoscopic, kaleidoscopic
When life has no meaning
And all day you're dreaming
About a way out, with a pill, a smoke
Oh, and a Jack and Coke
I'm leaving

The flashing lights are blinding
The sounds of ivory blinding
Makes it all
Makes it all

The highs in life I'm finding
The lows so intertwining
Makes it all
Makes it all not worth it

But you know me
Better than anyone
You know I'll never learn
You know I'll never learn
