The Veil - Deca

Just want to mention in passing

There’ll be food and drink and be moonlight dancing

If you can see through it somehow

Could you lend your place or a hotel room now?

Now, Miss Perfect was powdering her nose

In the bathroom stall with a pile of chemicals

Gettin' zooted, I was daydreaming about my music

Cleaning forbidden fruit out my teeth with a toothpick

The masqueraders are passing out party favors and

Playing games that appeal to our darker nature

Like William Tell with a loaded Glock

If you’re not a sure shot

You’ll decorate the flesh with red polka dots

Holly stepped out the restroom

With toilet paper stuck to her stiletto’s holding a Golden Globe

If all the kings men weren’t riddled with bullet holes,

She’d be the bulimic Belle of the Ball that stole the show

But tragedy’s a photo op so strike a pose

With a seven headed beast she’s a sight to behold

My Babylonian beauty, boujee, diamond earring

Designer wearing diamond earrings, find your bearings

Just want to mention in passing

(I just want to say)

There’ll be food and drink and be moonlight dancing

(It's gonna be great)

If you can see to it somehow

(If you can see to it)

Could you lend your place or a hotel room now?

The sky darkened, but no one seemed to notice

Fighter planes blocking out the sun like locusts

It’s all show biz, glamour and glitz

Divine play of a Broadway and camera tricks

Little Miss Bites-Her-Lower-Lip, wine trickles down her chin

I’m sitting in the corner taking notes with a fountain pen

Inside looking out, outside looking in

Sing a praise from a wrinkled page in a book of hymns

And when the moon turns blood red

And love is something terrible but beautiful that’s hanging by a thread

You don’t know if it’s the end or a new beginning

But know for sure there’s something fundamentally flawed with the life that

you’ve been living

I wasn’t there for the crucifixion

We tight rope walk the thin line between truth and superstition

If you don’t know, you’ll know real soon

Its sacred and profane, atoned in the hotel room

Just want to mention in passing

(I just want to say)

There’ll be food and drink and be moonlight dancing

(It's gonna be great)

If you can see to it somehow

(If you can see to it)

Could you lend your place or a hotel room now?

Now, I’ve been so lost, kicked while I was down

Barely had the strength to pull my sickly frame off the ground

I’ve been found out, a fraud, a phony

Exposed, felt the world breathe when taken beyond my threshold for pain

Maintain, sang in the rain

I’m the only one to blame for not staking my claim

I have fallen so far from grace

Built to destroy, the search for new worlds that would help me to fill the void

I am 1−0, I kill the noise

And red rum the rhythm section with no exception the real McCoy

Searching for the source the dream merchant in the sky

The most high that penalized a certain sin of pride

There’s serpents in the skies lurking round the city streets

I pull the curtains back and saw Jehovahs' speaking with the beast

Weigh my soul, weigh my organic metronome

Place it on the scale, help me see beyond the…

Veil…
