House of Toys Lyrics

The fallacy of youth thinking that you choose

That everything you own right now, you will never lose

You will lose it all, every hair and every tooth

Just as you don't belong to them, they do not belong to you

All order will subside in an avalanche of shoes

Not everything you know right now will always be the truth

You'll be lost again without a compass in the woods

If you don't belong to them, how could they belong to you?

Don't be surprised that I'm able to perpetuate a lie

'Cause I'm happily disabled by the sun that shines inside

While I'm the hardiest of cynics, I know I'm lucky I'm alive

I remember nights by the knives

I remember nights by the knives

Ashes line the drives, burned down are the lives

But you can't lose what you don't have so I guess that you'll survive

You alone aren't lost and you still have your lot

For if you don't belong to them, they are easily forgotten

Don't be surprised that I'm able to perpetuate a lie

'Cause I'm happily disabled by the sun that shines inside

While I'm the hardiest of cynics, I know I'm lucky I'm alive

I remember nights by the knives

Don't be surprised that I'm able to perpetuate a lie

'Cause I'm happily disabled by the sun that shines inside

While I'm the hardiest of cynics, I know I'm lucky I'm alive

I remember nights by the knives

I remember nights by the knives.
