loud family - the apprentice lyrics

Loading...

we all have our little privacies
death-defying entanglements
vice, virtue and the other thing
slipping silently between the body and the mind

and then i lay it all on the apprentice
he can take it
he don’t really know me at all
but i taught him how to fake it, taught him how to fake it
yeah

and in the morning i can have him
next to me in a foreign pose
in the evening i can sweep the whole mess away
like a shopkeeper itching to close

and then i lay it all on the apprentice
he can take it
he don’t really know me at all
but i taught him how to fake it,
taught him how to fake it
yeah

the flicking tongue of indecency
on the limp fingers of integrity
pulling the short hairs of a guilty conscience
into the void of lovesick reciprocity

each match lit burns like guilt
each curtain drawn strangles our will
i shudder to believe anything will stop this endless stretch
of flag-waving and chronic misbehaving

and then i lay it all on the apprentice
he can take it
he don’t really know me at all
but i taught him how to fake it
and then i lay it all on the apprentice
he can take it
he don’t really know me at all
but i taught him how to fake it,
i taught him how to fake it,
i taught him how to fake it
and i should know how to fake it now
