This is the moment of truth Am I a seer or a fumbling youth? This is the promise of the rope The only place that I can hope I can't find the words I can't take the chance Can't learn the moves Can't play the part Savage dance And life is vapour in the sky A trail of bread crumbs leading nowhere This is the promise of the knife The only time I feel alive I can't find the words I can't play the part Can't learn the moves To the savage dance I can't find the thoughts I can't play the masks Scarred by the moment Learning your savage dance This is the moment of truth Standing in petrol Lighting matches with you This is the promise of the rope The only place that I can hope I can't find the words I can't take the chance Can't learn the moves To the savage dance Scarred by the moment Scarred by the moment Savage dance The savage dance The savage dance The savage dance
