Lotus Mirage - Brutus Games

Verse 1
Synonymous in thought
Breaking clocks, working in unorthodox fun
Never rested normally
But we excelled as one
Debated on Julius Caesar
Minds poisoned casually
Messenger bird at a Bright Eyes show
Tears fly in harmony

Pre Chorus 1
Caving into my sunken fears
You were perfectly happy

Chorus
I've cried out for honor
Shock waves riddled seven floors
I always let my guard down
Couldn’t see past the open door
‘Cause Brutus Games like these are requited
I'll make sure

Verse 2
Sacrificial costs
Tired eyes, always casting me out to dry
Never gave up easily
But it's too late, I lied
Took on too much, slipping through the cracks
Framed, feeling full distress
Quick advantage, loved the edges gained
Buried inside the nest
Pre-Chorus 2
Overcome by the whole burnout
You were perfectly cavalier

Chorus
I’ve cried out for honor
Shock waves riddled seven floors
I always let my guard down
Couldn't see past the open door
‘Cause Brutus Games like these are requited
I'll make sure

Bridge
Is trust just a moniker for a ruse?
Once your equal, now I'm wasted revenue
Could have left unmarked, but how does one foretell?
Friendship auctions fate on a carousel
Our circuit is a game of “getting used”
Rising, falling ‘til our actions break the fuse
Crushed by your hypnosis, still buried in my shell
Hatched for a foe to break me, only time will tell

Chorus
I've cried out for honor
Shock waves riddled seven floors
I always let my guard down
Couldn't see past the open door
I've cried out for honor
Shock waves riddled seven floors
I always let my guard down
Couldn't see past the open door
‘Cause Brutus Games like these are requited
I’ll make sure
