Wine and Roses Songtext
von Louden Swain

Gut punched and robotic
Schedule′s clear as day
But my eyesight fades away
I recognize the blurry page
As what I cannot say
I take it as a cue and hide
Inside my smokey haze

I try to speak but there's a black cloud in the way
I try to scream but the chords in my throat are only on display
I kid you not, I knew I′d soon be quarantined, trapped inside my head
Right now it's bogus, boring, idiotic paranoia
People rising from the dead

This is my residence
It's my entire fleet


I saw that bug follow you
From the path of my neighbors′ yard
"Wait, wait, what?
What′s the mattеr with that?"
You say like some kind of Kierkеgaard
Oh my god, I'm hurt real bad
Call a doctor, try to get me in bed
And they say it′s wine and roses in the end

Ooh, I went to the edge
(I went to the edge)
Yeah, I went to the edge
(I went to the edge)
I went to the window
I went to the ledge
I made an announcement, I made a mistake
I made the decision I decided to take
I made an amendment, I stepped on some toes
Feeling ever after or so the story goes

This is my own two cents
Just to make ends meet


I saw that bug follow you
From the path of my neighbors' yard
"Wait, wait, what?
What′s the matter with that?"
You say like some kind of Kierkegaard
Oh my god, I'm hurt real bad
Call a doctor, try to get me in bed
And they say it′s wine and roses in the end
In the end

This is my residence
It's my entire fleet

I saw that bug follow you
From the path of my neighbors' yard
"Wait, wait, what?
What′s the matter with that?"
You say like some kind of Kierkegaard
Oh my god, I′m hurt real bad
Call a doctor, try to get me in bed
And they say it's wine and roses
Yeah, they say it′s wine and roses in the end
In the end
