Riddles and Lies - Danny Schmidt[00:00:00]
The gleam in your eye [00:00:13]
It begged me to try[00:00:15]
And it warned me[00:00:18]
I'd never succeed[00:00:19]
But from the way[00:00:23]
That you stood I understood[00:00:24]
That you knew no better than me[00:00:29]
Tell me why tell me why [00:00:35]
All these riddles and lies[00:00:38]
And delicate threads of disguise[00:00:41]
When the games that we play [00:00:46]
They're so carefully staged[00:00:49]
Well why do we still roll the dice[00:00:52]
Halfway to sleep [00:01:10]
You asked what I need[00:01:13]
I answered in tongues and in braille[00:01:16]
Cause the thoughts[00:01:21]
That I speak are like tracks down the beach[00:01:22]
They're just true til the ocean exhales[00:01:27]
Tell me why tell me why [00:01:33]
All these riddles and lies[00:01:37]
And delicate threads of disguise[00:01:40]
When the words on my tongue [00:01:45]
They're not the same ones[00:01:48]
I speak to myself late at night[00:01:51]
There's things I can say [00:02:09]
When you're inches away[00:02:12]
When you're vision's[00:02:15]
Still blurry and close[00:02:16]
And our stories are flames[00:02:20]
Of beeswax and shame[00:02:23]
As real and transparent as smoke[00:02:26]
Tell me why tell me why [00:02:32]
All these riddles and lies[00:02:36]
And delicate threads of disguise[00:02:39]
When we're all just the same [00:02:44]
Slightly organized rain[00:02:47]
Well why do we still choose to hide[00:02:50]
When we're all just the same [00:02:56]
Slightly organized rain[00:02:58]
Well why do we still choose to hide[00:03:02]
Why do we still choose to hide[00:03:08]
