lyrics

Dust flies through the sky higher than the martians.
Dust flies in your eyes and you can't see true passion.
We've dog-eared the corners, leaves a rug burn and a sore.
We've stepped on it before. It's faded and glued to the floorboards.

The old red carpet is out.
Sopped in a film of doubt.
You know it's true, I'll leave it and choose.
To yield, to stay a few. To lose.

Opportunity wasted, boy am I guilty.
Tyranny's pinned to my palm as I slap myself silly.
So let's go drink up all the rain and blame it on the weather.
And yes, I should be better. But i'll smile just for good measure.

The old red carpet is out.
Sopped in a film of doubt.
You know it's true, I'll leave it and choose.
To yield, to stay a few. To lose.

Is it wrong to have never tried
when it's been sprawled throughout my life?
Well there's always tomorrow after another goodnight.
But what good is a tomorrow when I know I'll lose the fight.

The old red carpet is out.
Sopped in a film of doubt.
You know it's true, I'll leave it and choose.
To yield, to stay a few. To lose.
