lyrics

I watched it end the other day
set my old cold collapse of clay
in the hours I don't believe in me
everything my faith beat out of me

is it cruel, is it cave, is it old, is it lame, is it me?
is it something you need, is it me that you feast on week after week?
my only fate we all agree
my bloodied eyes my only reprieve

set my beliefs to brighter seas
tonight I race towards a righteous feast
Am I alone or am I to waste?
I see the answers written all over your face

is it cruel to believe that there's someone to root for me?
once in awhile did it come back around to my sole belief
am I crazy?
am I crazy for thinking this way

Play It As It Lays.
Play It As It Lays.
oh watch me fade

watch it come
watch the world feel light as any moon
feel it come
feel the brightness of the moon
feel it come
set behind me walking down
we're the same as a raining novel
