The Menzingers - Chamberlain Waits lyrics
[The Menzingers - Chamberlain Waits lyrics]
I’ve been awake for hours
As I watch the sunrise come over nothing
And then outside, the cars start racing
Searching for something that we could never
Seem to find or afford
And maybe I owe the Devil a little something
Just to keep things stable
Because last night
I realized I was nothing more
Than just a serpent for his plans
Chamberlain’s waiting down at the bottom
Of the city of hell or heaven it'self
As the whistle she sings
My hands building weapons for kings
While somebody’s drinking my last
Ration of victory gin i’m sober as sin
As my hands start to shake
I fill with post-modern debates
While Chamberlain’s waiting
Build our mistakes to the clouds
Then blame us for dreaming out loud
As I watch the sunrise come over nothing
And then outside, the cars start racing
Searching for something that we could never
Seem to find or afford
And maybe I owe the Devil a little something
Just to keep things stable
Because last night
I realized I was nothing more
Than just a serpent for his plans
Chamberlain’s waiting down at the bottom
Of the city of hell or heaven it'self
As the whistle she sings
My hands building weapons for kings
While somebody’s drinking my last
Ration of victory gin i’m sober as sin
As my hands start to shake
I fill with post-modern debates
While Chamberlain’s waiting
Build our mistakes to the clouds
Then blame us for dreaming out loud
