My Incentive by To Heaven Earth Is Hell Lyrics
I, the first to commence
What I start, I will end
Cycles of dawn and dusk conspiring. Ask me to dance
Tired of dawn and dusk aspiring. Trip over my own steps
Trade your vigor for vices. No matter what the price is
Define the talk, then walk the walk
Prove to everyone just how easy this life is
Stride through strife
Sway lesser ones to embrace their snake eyes
(Eyes) they’re always on me
But a lion doesn’t concern itself with sheep
Trade your vices for vigor. We stand alone
There used to be a time we sat and talked
But for long this time has gone
This home’s left to their own devices
And the walls begin to rot
Lies and false promises define this lion: a liar at heart
Well despite these lies and promises I’ve gotten you everything you’ve wanted, right?
I’ve taken care of everything, you couldn’t take care of yourself
I’ve heeded every sign how to make it right and it still isn’t good enough?
I’ve taken care of everything, you couldn’t take care of yourself
I’ve heeded every sign... How am I still not good enough?
It’s not like I was born on top
I’ve worked so hard to get what we’ve got
You were always my incentive
Now look at how far I’ve come...
How far you’ve drifted away from me
I, the first to commence - to any need, desire or demand
Cycles of dawn and dusk they tire me. Please stop the dance
I, the first to commence - at what point I began to pretend...
...That the life I wanted more than anything must make room for this dead fucking end?
I, the first to commence
What I start, I will end
Cycles of dawn and dusk conspiring. Ask me to dance
Tired of dawn and dusk aspiring, trip over my own steps
You were always my incentive... Now you drift away from me
You were always my incentive... Why do you drift away from me?
What I start, I will end
Cycles of dawn and dusk conspiring. Ask me to dance
Tired of dawn and dusk aspiring. Trip over my own steps
Trade your vigor for vices. No matter what the price is
Define the talk, then walk the walk
Prove to everyone just how easy this life is
Stride through strife
Sway lesser ones to embrace their snake eyes
(Eyes) they’re always on me
But a lion doesn’t concern itself with sheep
Trade your vices for vigor. We stand alone
There used to be a time we sat and talked
But for long this time has gone
This home’s left to their own devices
And the walls begin to rot
Lies and false promises define this lion: a liar at heart
Well despite these lies and promises I’ve gotten you everything you’ve wanted, right?
I’ve taken care of everything, you couldn’t take care of yourself
I’ve heeded every sign how to make it right and it still isn’t good enough?
I’ve taken care of everything, you couldn’t take care of yourself
I’ve heeded every sign... How am I still not good enough?
It’s not like I was born on top
I’ve worked so hard to get what we’ve got
You were always my incentive
Now look at how far I’ve come...
How far you’ve drifted away from me
I, the first to commence - to any need, desire or demand
Cycles of dawn and dusk they tire me. Please stop the dance
I, the first to commence - at what point I began to pretend...
...That the life I wanted more than anything must make room for this dead fucking end?
I, the first to commence
What I start, I will end
Cycles of dawn and dusk conspiring. Ask me to dance
Tired of dawn and dusk aspiring, trip over my own steps
You were always my incentive... Now you drift away from me
You were always my incentive... Why do you drift away from me?
