Sucker's Shangri-La

A false heaven has touched down

This is a sucker’s Shangri-La no doubt

Are you going to be crestfallen?

A mark

Playing a game

I fear your hand

The devil in me wants to know

So I ask

Oh oh

Is your time running out?

Your family fortune

Going up in flames

Child

This is not what you’ve been waiting for

They fooled you

Wanting to believe

It’s a perfect reason

To wave goodbye

You can’t even escape its shadow

You can’t escape crying over photographs

It doesn’t help that he can see you coming

And he knows how to break you like an animal

You writhe just like a worm

Because you are accursed

Oh oh

Just let me lay here

While I vacillate

Do I bend?

Are we bound together evermore?

That’s just how it is

Out to sea without an oar

Drifting off again

With the sirens sounding

Wave goodbye
