lyrics

Promise to forgive me
Swear if I do it again
Well I’ll wake this house up way past dark
And go to sleep in it

Wrestling with tradition
Wooden nose wouldn’t do me no harm
They know I’m lying, that I’ll be gone
Waiting outside the Berkeley Arms

Stop staring at me longer than's allowed
Detoured the parades away from my house

Could find another reason to believe
I’d rather just leave
If only I could see what you could see
It wouldn’t be so hard

A sea of reason rises
For every drop of truth
If you swear its you that’s right
I’ll shout your judgement from the roof

Wrestling with conviction
Is this as sacred as it seems
I’m tired of trying to fall asleep
with Berkeley Arms reaching for me

Stop staring at me longer than's allowed
Detoured the parades away from my house

I could find another reason to believe
I’d rather just leave
If only I can see what you can see it wouldn’t be so hard

I can see a thing and I cant feel a thing at all
But when I hears those sounds I know I’m going down
