Expensive (Cinema Of Pain) - Spirit of the West

I’ll take a stand for truth and justice

Then line you up against the wall

Loyal people gather 'round me

Until someone points the finger, then alone i fall

I can make you rise in anger

Or watch your anger rise and swallow me

I’m the bane of your existance

Or the come true of your perfect dream

There’s a cinema of pain

Now showing in my mind

The price of admission is to relive

The mistakes i left behind

And that’s a cost i cannot bear

I’m the framed upon your desk

Or the cartoon with your morning tea

I’ll take flowers from a child’s hand

Bullets from a twisted man -my penalty

I can make a promise that i’ll never keep

As well as i can keep a promise never made

I can hide behind a wall of words

Or stand tall and call a spade a spade

I can bend the truth to make me right

I can use it to defend

I can use it to attack, hide the fact

That the means don’t justify the ends

I can flip a coin for wrong or right

Heads i wil and talkes you lose

That’s the way i play: i choose the games

And then i make the rules
