A Modest Recovery

You're nothing short of amazing
I might choke but I'm still gazing
From the rooftop witnessing squares running in circles
For you I'd sanction murder
To ease a tedious burden
The scum and regular people would say it's deceitful
With death I will entertain you
With smoke from barrels spare few
Pile bodies to a pillar of grandeur that mirrors your beauty
And on someone elses behalf
I'd crack a joke so you can laugh
It's a bleak affaire but it's fairly done
The shots I called the laws I shunned
Your perfection requires night rites
A carcrash redeemed so I just smile
I am perfectly perfectly honest wouldn't you too
And on someone elses behalf
I'd crack a joke so you can laugh
It's a bleak affaire but it's fairly done
The shots I called the laws I shunned
It just doesn't get any better
So there's a want of
A modest recovery
A tragic novelty
And all I give you
Is a sudden relief
From common thieves
And what they stole
And on someone elses behalf
I'd crack a joke so you can laugh
It's a bleak affaire but it's fairly done
The shots I called the laws I shunned
It just doesn't get any better
