Raw Is War - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

We used to party over there

In the window, there's a light, brand new neon sign

No reflection, sparks that linger release

And they burn through

Like every street’s a deleted scene

In the night, machine hydraulics drone

And lasers cut through my dreams

All the sparks that linger release

It cuts deep

Can't think too far ahead on a dying star

A soft and silver lining compromised

Whip smart with expert timing

Is it good? Does it taste prеtty sweet?

Hanging on by the skin of your teeth

A barely livable profеssional town

A snake eating its tail

And preserving a facade to paint a brand new name

To rinse and reuse

Can't trust the ones who won’t take the bus

Who all moved here to complain

Then just stand in bars and talk

All the sparks that linger release

It hits deep

Can't think too far ahead on a dying star

A soft and silver lining compromised

Whip smart with expert timing

Is it good? Does it taste pretty sweet?

Hanging on by the skin of your teeth

Is it good? Does it taste pretty sweet?

Hanging on by the skin of your teeth

A soft and silver lining compromised

Whip smart with expert timing compromised

A soft and silver lining

A soft and silver lining compromised

Compromised
