I sell the hope and take the fear
Paint the struggle in true colours
A piece of art for you to frame
See through the veil like the old masters
Peace of mind for you to own
You're looking for the promise of resolve
I tell the story unto others
Decide what they hold dear
A memory for you to distort
I offer food for thought
I tell the lie and eat the fear
A meme for you to understand
The promise of resolve
I am feeding your addiction
You are feeding mine
I cannot heal your affliction
Even over time
I require your attention
You desire mine
How much time can we be spending
Waiting for a sign?
Overdriven messages
A truth, a rip, a tear
Crying at your shoulders
Venting troubles we all share
Generation absolution
Permission to strip bare
Pouring out our hearts to you
Hoping you might care
I sing a song of good and evil
Shining epic, woeful tale
A record made for you to buy
A promise of resolve
You can hear beneath the static
A melody that lets you cry
A chorus you can sing along to
A promise of resolve
I sell hope and eat the fear
I decide what you hold dear
I sell hope and eat the fear
