about

A beautiful ballad written in Bali by Bruce

lyrics

Money to burn and hours to waste you’re a free man. Like a butterfly takes off to the sky with new wings. They’ve planted a seed where wants turn to needs and a blanket. Of lies and deceit as you fly down the street takes your soul in. Bright neon signs and reality bites leave you feeling. For a second this path is more real than the last ever promised. The thrill of the chase as you wait for the doors to come open. And hands filled with hope pack their shopping carts high with salvation. And in this town the blind are leading the blind and this time could be the last time. Oh! Look what you’ve done. Turned every truth into a lie. We’re victims of desire for our own redemption. Ooo! When is enough? Burned every bridge to no return but still we journey on with blind ambition. She catches your eye with the pull of a dangerous moment and morality catches a plane to the coast like you’d planned it. You bow at her feet as if she could resolve your condition. But no one on earth has the power to say you’re forgiven. And in this town the blind are leading the blind and this time could be the last time. Oh! Look what you’ve done. Turned every truth into a lie. We’re victims of desire for our own redemption. Ooo! When is enough? Burned every bridge to no return but still we journey on with blind ambition.
