"Some Kind Of Treachery" lyrics

"Some Kind Of Treachery"

Now the old man deep in prayer wonders
How he'll survive and who cares
Thunder rolls by, lost into the night
Martyrs sing, they have the right

They'll give you no sanctuary
But hide in the shadows around you
And there'll be no guarantee
It's all true
They'll take all your memory
And wrap it up so you can't find it
That's some kind of treachery
Yeah, fight it

Such a young girl pays the price, always
They'll look away, close their eyes
Bad day, somehow she'll never explain
What's more she'll never complain

Can you hear the phantom play?
Get down on your knees and surrender
You're out on the wrong highway
Yeah, maybe
You're looking for someone fine
A king or a thief or a beggar
You're looking for all mankind
Yeah

You're goin' nowhere
Lost hotel you can't find
And if you dare
Picture this in your mind

They'll give you no sanctuary
But hide in the shadows around you
And there'll be no guarantee
It's all true
They'll take all your memory
And wrap it up so you can't find it
That's some kind of treachery
Yeah, fight it

Can you hear the phantom play?
Get down on your knees and surrender
You're out on the wrong highway
Yeah, maybe
You're looking for someone fine
A king or a thief or a beggar
You're looking for all mankind
Yeah
