The Empire Hideous

Talk Is Cheap

Fire eyed and jealous from reason.
All this change falls under the sun.
Too much game and not enough freedom.
You've been invited but will you come?

I see a yearning in your eyes.
It seems to strike me with your lies.
It's not a complicated story line.
My accusation to this fashion blind.
Talk is cheap to me.

Pleasure twins were the beast of burden.
But a cheat to lure me in sight.
Head down, loaded with Novocain.
I'm blacking out from the charade of light.

Is this seduction really wise.
It's just a temperamental rise of lies.
It's not a treasure that we find.
It's just the answer to our walking blind. Talk is cheap to me.

You don't seem so fine, to walk this line.
A word from the wise. Please stop these lies.
All the time you give me lies, it seems unkind to close your eyes.
Behind this door I find my own, but not a room to hide from lies and lies and lies

Too many words and not enough meaning.
A bleak crowd with dreams astray.
Spending nights in the hopes of meeting,
Another token to bring your way.

Faith and promise seem to die.
It's just a fracture to these lies.
I'm not a pretty sight to see.
Provoked, I'll stand my ground and listen when talk is cheap to me.

Your talk is cheap to me. You feed me lies.
Your talk is cheap to me. All the time.
Your talk is cheap to me. You feed me lies.
