Guard Down

There's a buzz in the streets, There's stir in the seas There's a noise in the ether It's right in front of our eyes But the sweetest of lies Is the hardest to wake from In the thoughts that we think In the water we drink In the music we dance to And the rhythm goes on, Though the rhythm is wrong We know 'Cause we all know what is going on But we close our eyes, you see And we all know how to play along But we're losing so hear my plea Don't let your guard down Don't let your guard down Don't let your guard down Don't let your guard down There's no way to maintain These games in the grey It's a losing religion There's a knock on our door But we're out on the floor Now who's going to answer? It's not the time to hold back And hide from the fact The damage is done 'Cause if this rhythm goes on Then the rhythm is gone We know Come what may, I finally found a place where we could stay It's where we poured the whiskey on the grave Come what may Come what may Come what may I finally found a place where we could stay And we all know what is going on But we close our eyes, you see And we all know how to play along But we're losing so hear my plea And we all know what is going on But we close our eyes, you see And everybody knows how to play along But we're losing so hear my plea Don't let your guard down Don't let your guard down Don't let your guard down Don't let your guard down Don't let your guard down Don't let your guard down Don't let your guard down Don't let your guard down Don't let your guard down No Don't let your guard down Don't let your guard down No Don't let your guard down Don't let your guard down
