Lyrics:
I just shook the handshake
I just sealed the deal
I'll try not to let them
take everything they can steal
people always told me
don't forget your roots
I know I can feel them underneath my leather boots
I was a loner, I was just waiting by myself,
when you, warped temptress, rose to bring me happiness and wealth.
Black tears, black smile, black credit card and shoes.
You can call all the people you want, but it's you who's being used.
Under your black eyes honey, right beneath your nose,
a curse on all creation, every single thing you know.
White smoke, white light, white marble on the floor.
It would only take a few seconds of darkness to figure out what's in store.
little girl
You convince yourself that you want it, but you don't know.
You keep on trying to wash the blood from your hands, but it won't go.
We're gonna keep you on the run.
We got the handshake under our tongue.
