lyrics

Like the ticking clock
You will not stop
You will not yield
You will not drop
Time and again
There is no end
You try it on
But I can’t pretend
Like an infection
Avoiding correction
There is no change
Just changed direction
Yes, like a disease
No cure can appease
No one can watch
But everyone sees

I can’t hear you
It's always the same
It's always the same
When is the time that you will not lie to me
Never lie to me, never lie to me

I can't feel you
Things will never change
Things will never change
When is the time to call in the cavalry
It’s for you not me, you not me

Further to fool
Deceit is your fuel
Smile on your face
Outlook so cool

Mirrors and smoke
Stories and jokes
Keep you alive
But just make me choke

The cackling clown
He just won’t drown
Hands round his neck
But he won’t go down

Misspent career
So insincere
You open your mouth
But I must shut my ears

I can’t hear you
It's always the same
It's always the same
When is the time that you will not lie to me
Never lie to me, never lie to me

I can't feel you
Things will never change
Things will never change
When is the time to call in the cavalry
It’s for you not me, you not me

Don’t you lie
Don’t you lie

When your lips open
Your secrets your lies
They come out like flies
Don’t you lie

I Plead Irony know exactly what they are doing.

These “accomplished band whores” as a local rock hero Paul Townsend (Hundred Reasons) describes them certainly provide more angst ridden, raw edged rock with lashings of melody then you can shake your “sign of the horns” or even a stick at! ... more
