Citizens of a starless sky They've stolen the sun, and held it for ransom An endless greed, unsatisfied Can see the blood on their hands does more than just feed them It's there for a reason Because for all we know All this is just a dream Things are not exactly as they seem Some time to sit back and just have a drink Another man might just believe what he's told But I'm on my way to being bought and sold Can't wait to measure my blood out in gold and platinum sales So drink the wine, boy, drink it down The past is forgone, replaced by this moment And we're shadows of ourselves Confined to shelves, with nothing left to say Content to fade away Cause for all we know All this is just a dream Things are not exactly as they seem Some time to sit back and have a drink But getting is easy without any soul With each empty promise it keeps getting old Learning to measure my blood out in gold and platinum sales Have I just failed? Or lost sight of the trail If all this is just a dream Things might not be quite as bad as they seem I'll probably sit back and have a drink Another man might just believe what he's told But I'm on my way to being bought and sold See them setting their sails for the gold and platinum skies
