Good Intent |
You heard the crickets of the early eve |
They lurk around the opening in twos and threes |
Clementine told you not to move with the breeze |
I’ll take you down to places where we dare not speak |
The red light in the doorway says she’s armed (She's armed) |
I wouldn’t go try your luck or you might get passed (Might get passed) |
Step into the dwelling of the liger’s mouth |
Peer into the panic for a kick and swell |
You know you shouldn’t be there but it’s way past bed |
There’s comfort in the fingers of your good intent |
You know you shouldn’t be there but your money’s all spent |
You’ve got your reputation and your good intent |
Your good intent |
Ooh ooh ooh |
Out to feed that habit when you’ve sowed that seed |
Nothing made you feel out of the ordinary |
But the air turns sombre and the night took thee |
Took you on a waltz of hypocrisy |
She broke your bones, now you’re lying in the dirt |
The shadow of a hunter under your torture |
It’s not enough to say, it’s not what’s in your heart |
You’ve tainted every moment 'til death do we part |
I know you didn’t mean it, boy you meant so well |
The pennies are cascading down your wishing well |
I know you didn’t mean it when you counted to ten |
You’re slipping through the fingers of your good intent |
I know you didn’t mean it, though you meant so well |
The pennies are cascading down your wishing well |
I know you didn’t mean it when you counted to ten |
You’ve got your reputation and your good intent |
Such a good intent |
It’s not enough to hope for the best |
It’s not enough to lie there on a breast |
The liger’s on the prowl now you’ve pulled its strings |
One false move and soon you’re playing dice for a |
