Butter Up (05/07/2014)

With gods like these who needs enemys?
They send you like an elephant on a flying trapeze.
 With excuses
 All the reason in the world
 all the rhyme but no mistake for what is done
You peeled the sulphur from the sun; and

 (Pre-Chorus)
No
You can't send your forgiveness
because you've heard it all before
left lying on the floor
and; No
There won't be a retraction
Another day just waiting for inaction

(CH)
They butter you up
so they can tear you down easy so easy -
one more time
They butter you up
so they can sell you the answer
why it didnt turn out this time (this time)
But when it all melts down
You can have some on your waffles or throw it out.
You choose the story now.
Who butters you up?
And if it drags you down you are responsible now.
You are responsible.

 With friends like these the world is on its knees
And they skin you like a tiger
spread out on the hunters floor.
 Every option in the world
to move along so swiftly or
like a brick
you can curl up 'round
holding a grudge up
like a mirror to your own face now.
