Traffic won't stop
Headlights on, market stalls sold out their stock
Little Johnny rides his bike along
The boulevard without limits or stops
Temptations are grand and unjust
Doesn't bother most who won't care to look
Until the time has come
To pay penance for the justice slashed undone
Dear officer I confess
I'll gladly testify against myself
To bring down the rest
Don't try and save me I'm content
I'll gladly walk along this plank and sink
Into the deep abyss
One thought captured the elegance
That treasure is something we can't touch
You keep marauding, distorting all the facts
Now this town lies empty, my heart is bare
If you ignore the signs
Maybe you'll make it back home in time
If you dare to cross the line
Only then will you feel the truth inside
All people can choose to leave
All mistakes they will be revealed
All promises made weren't true
Just a clever illusion to hurt you
Dear officer I confess
I'll gladly testify against myself
To bring down the rest
Don't try and save me I'm content
I'll gladly walk along this plank and sink
Into the deep abyss
One thought captured the elegance
That treasure is something we can't touch
You keep marauding, distorting all the facts
Now this town lies empty, my heart is bare
It's a race against the clock that's ticking on
The pressure's mounting again
And once you've given up you know you've lost
Don't think you can run away back there
