歌詞
Sister Mary tried to scare me with things she'd seen
Told me son you don't have to see it to believe
Love flows down and drops of water wash you clean
Manipulation, better given than received
First the sleight of hand shake
Then a star to prey
Picks the guarded landscape
Leaves the slow decay
Cast aspersions net the marks and cut the bait
Congregations manicured with thoughtful frames
Sold salvation, buys indulgence to escape
With credit cards of who to charge and who to blame
Cuts around the edges
Takes the whole thing out
Claims divine perfection
Benefits from doubt
Falling, Falling slowly out now
Handing down redemption, pass the dice, and wipe the slate
Don't know the odds but love the game and have to play
Insinuations come and go and take a break
Silent juries ever loyal look away
Discards the indiscretion
Soft appeals to faith
Not up to your discretion
Need to know your place
Falling, Falling slowly out now
Falling, Falling slowly out now
When the house stops winning furniture is rearranged
Collections offered set aside for keeping safe
Treadmills spinning exhaust the miles and dull the rage
Keep all appointments to sanitize and key the cage
Now watch the hands shake
Conviction starts to melt
The card trick you played
Was the hand you dealt
It was the hand you dealt
