Dying Breeds - Sword or Damocles lyrics

Sword of Damocles

Balancing above my head
An edge with potential
Collateral damage
My, it's a savage way to fall
And if there's one thing I've said
It's to know when to play dead

Managing to stay above
Despite outlines of chalk
Out on the town, gotta frown cuz we've slowed to pretty much a walk
And if there's one thing I say
It's to live for yesterday

Child lid still a problem
Bayside on my CD player
Never one for attention, guess I'll just make do and slay the time
The sword of Damocles will bring you down
Haunched over, crouched on your knees

Sweating like a rapist in court
No, I'm never bored (not as it is in here)
Take the A off apathetic and what have you got?
And if there's one thing I've said
It's to know when to play dead

Take a D out of sedated and you can't stand up
It's irrelevant; the merriment; you really meant that glee you said
And it's all in my head

And if there's one thing I'm good at
It's curiosity and the cat

Child lid still a problem
Bayside on my CD player
Never one for attention, guess I'll just make do and slay the time
The sword of Damocles will bring you down
Haunched over, crouched on your knees
