Bucket of Steam 4

Lyrics > Bucket of Steam 4

SIDESTEPPING (IN THE DARK)

ARE YOU AS DUMB AS YOU LOOK…OR ARE YOU PLAYING A GAME?
SOME SAY YOU’VE RUN OUT OF LUCK, YOU JUST KEEP PASSING THE BLAME

CHORUS
WE MISPERCEIVED YOUR PROWESS
(WE) NEVER UNDERSTOOD YOUR TRUE AIMS
LIVING OUR LIVES IN APATHY
(WHILE) YOU SPLIT THE SPOILS WITH THE DKE

WERE WE FOOLED BY YOUR SMILES……HAVE WE FALLEN FOR YOUR LATEST RUSE?
OBSCURE THE TRUTH…PLAY TO OUR FEARS…YOU MASQUERADE AS A HARMLESS FOOL

CHORUS
YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO YOUR VIEW OF GOD
YOU MAY BELIEVE IN ARMAGEDDON
BUT WE’RE THE FOOLS IF WE DON’T SEE
THAT THERE’S NO ROOM FOR US IN YOUR HEAVEN

CHORUS
THE LINE BETWEEN HOPE AND HORROR
THE SPACE BETWEEN TRUTH AND LIES
THE DREAMS WE HAVE WILL BE DEFERRED
TO PAY FOR WAR GAMES AND FOOLISH PRIDE

ARE YOU AS DUMB AS YOU LOOK…OR ARE YOU JUST LYING IN WAIT?
YOU’VE GOT YOUR BASE TO PLAY DOWN TO…WHILE THE REST OF US LIE IN WASTE

CHORUS
YOU’VE LED US INTO A BLIND ALLEY
SIDESTEPPING INTO THE DARK
FAUX RIGHTEOUS PROPHETS TURNED INTO KNAVES
WE’LL PAY YEAR AFTER YEAR FOR YOUR RECKLESS LARK
