Andy Williams (Every Time I Die) - Glitches lyrics

So long to young love, I've anchored my heart Farewell to small joys, I've burned down the bar I'm changing my name, so I don't do no harm Some say it's vanity, some say it's charm No levels, still the same old devils Frightened of fear, a servant of time Kidnapped the queen, I have angered the hive Snuffed out the star with celestial winds Ended a cycle that started again I stopped going out, they kept coming in Was I saving my soul or saving my skin? No levels, still the same old devils Can't hold it close, can't let it go Prisons and basements in slick model homes I'm just a day-tripper on sacred terrain My transformation went from mangled to tame I don't feel different but I don't feel the same I'm afloat with an ear to the ground I built a fortress with some books and a phrase I felt some heat, so I came out of the haze I saw the end and I was truly afraid I have begged, but I'm still not allowed It's a trap Lay the bait Catch the rat Flew home and left the unknown in the lurch Kept finding bodies, I called off the search Went to a hymn from a funeral dirge Church in the hospital, dog in the church No levels, still the same old devils Shepherd me back This time I know I don't know nothing I'm not in control Mindful, but gutless There's no need to panic
