Little Violin

The keys are inside
You're locked from your mind
The autopilot's on and you are wondering why
Taking your time
Your mood is sublime
Ignorance is bliss and you are living the lie

Soft voices speak when no one's around
So gently singing dap-mm-ba-ah
You seem to have a knack for ballet
'cause you dance around the point until you blow it away

There'll be no cease-fire when the war is waging
Fight and you fight till you get your way
You drink and you drink till you reach the bottom
Just want to play your violin

You take what you can and you make your way
Another chance for another day
There must be a reason that you say
Your love's like a fairy tale

I point and i laugh
Like a civil man
The cynicism's baking in too small of a pan
Cleaner than dirt
Softer than silk
The loudest of opinions drinking all of the milk

Soft whispers floating gently your way
I hear them falling bahp-mm doo-ay
You seem to have a knack for ballet
'cause you dance around the point until you blow it away

You bite and you bite till you get to something
Push and you push till you make your way
Scratch and you scratch till the color comes through
Dig and you dig till the blood flows

You sing the same old song and don't get sick of its sound
You sweat out all the shit inside you don't want around
Inebriate the witness till he does what you say
Your smile's still cemented but you want it that way
Your mind is running dry because it's never in use
You're fluid in a stream of potions poisoning truth
Your hands are tied above your head because of your crime
And inside we hear the explosion growing with every breath, its coming

Woah

You still know that you're moving on
You still think that you're moving on
You still say that you're moving on
But i think love is permanent
