Enjoy the View

From this distance clarity is a laughable ideal

Words shouted aloud, no audible appeal

The machines keep rolling, the show must go on

The kings strategically sacrifice their pawnsDon't wanna play that game, oh no

I don't wanna waste away

Don't wanna join the ranks of the dead

I'm barely breathing on the edge, I enjoy the viewFrom safety, fingers pointed amount to nil

If the guns don't get you, your silence will

Must I always shirk? Give me some constructive work

Or some meaningful responsibilityDon't wanna play that game, oh no

I don't wanna waste away

Don't wanna join the ranks of the dead

I'm barely breathing on the edge, I enjoy the view
