I come to you for guidance
I come to you for help
You just see a bright idea
To benefit yourselfYou know that there's no risk
Nothing you should dread
On to your deception
This view of wool delights my headFinally, I realize what you're all about
Time to pull out all the stops
Don't make me spell it onAll I know is what I'd do
If I was in your shoes
Nothing close to what you've done
Nothing close to what you doTell me that I'm failing
Hold me under thumb
Pay off my emotions made
Blind, deaf, dumbAnother hole in the bucket
Where it's wet you're gonna slide
You can't walk down the middle without
Slipping off the sideSmoked out, peeled back, unearthed
The real you washes ashoreI come to you for guidance
I come to call a truce
You take the rope I climb
And tie it in a nooseAsk my permission
To ask my permission
Don't even take a breath unless I knowTell me that I'm failing
Hold me under thumb
Pay off my emotions made
Blind, deaf, dumbYou will make it up to me
You will make amends
We will not be family
And we will not be friendsSmoked out, peeled back, unearthed
The real you washes ashore
Smoked out, peeled back, unearthed
The real you washes ashoreI come to you for guidance
I'm coming for the truth
You take the rope I climb and tie in a noose
Finally I realize what you're all about
Pack your shit, get the fuck outTell me that I'm failing
Hold me under thumb
Take off my emotions made
Blind, deaf, dumbYou will make it up to me
You will make amends
We could not be family
And we will not be friendsSmoked out, peeled back, unearthed
The real you washes ashore
Smoked out, peeled back, unearthed
The real you washes ashoreSmoked out, peeled back
Smoked out
