First to break won't be the first to feel the pull Ostracised in your half-step play of the martyr Fast to think peace talks and empty drives sound sure Break the fool. Penance sure; decree nisi forseen We'll sacrafice the hostage first so we don't feel the pain Writing baccalaureate for the departed We'll sacrafice the hostage first so we don't feel the pain Writing baccalaureate for the departed Wilt daguerreotype of dais We'll execute the hostage first so we feel that we survived Writing baccalaureate for the departed Paint the face of pride around the room Linoleum bathrobe represented on the telephone To break the fall i played the fool for you
