Proud Fools - Strange Life Lyrics

There's a ghost in the totem
There's an altar boy bound in a basement in Rome
There's a brain been stolen
Three bullets in the skull of the man who cracked the code
There are cowards and villains
There are flies on the walls in the bathrooms at TaJ Mahal
Loving faith and devotion
That blissful reverie before the slaughter come

Got a fifth and a motion
Got a pack of playing cards and a syllabary notion
A full set alphabet, alpha set to dominate the rest
Sycophant shit the bed
There's a shock, there's infection
There's blood running down your dead sister's ghost face
Leave a note for the owner
I'm not sorry I burned your effigy to the ground

This is the strangest life I have ever lived
This is the strangest life I have ever lived

Since the dusk of prevention
Sick cilium run run with the sugar high
Still we fall for the slogan
Put a face you wanna trust on the box and we'll buy
Glitter paper bag wear it now go to bed
Keep left stay straight kill your maid eat your pets
Another goat for the offering
We dance in the street running naked in the sunset
