Venetian Blind Man (Song)

[Verse 1]
Squints out of his window, he don't want to see
Venetian blind man, no one else to be
Talleyrand forces come down from high ground
Looks up at high horses - "well, we're safe for now"

[Pre-Chorus 1]
And he says "oh woah woah, it's only an omen
Oh, woah woah, stay in the moment."

[Chorus 1]
Private walls close in and cup their ears now
Trust us, we've got ways to make them talk
I've read the writing, how do these things lock?

[Verse 2]
String on his finger, a tourniquet ring
Venetian blind man, memory loaded on springs
Forward's behind him in the future that sneaks up
Keepеrs become finders, what's worth weeping ovеr's worth taking

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Oh, woah woah, sky is falling
Oh, woah woah, catch or it all ends

[Chorus 2]
Lord knows I've said awful things 'round this house
They echo through the frame and six feet down
What killed the dead end? Burn it to the ground

[Bridge]
Oh, woah woah, lose out or give out
Oh, woah woah, give up or live down
Oh, woah wo-o-o-oah, nobody chose it
Woah woah woah, well nobody knows it better than I do

[Chorus 3]
Feet, don't fail me now the ways my eyes did
Mind, don't snap and heart, don't break, not now
No, not like this, any but this breakdown

[Outro]
Venetian blind man
Venetian blind man
Venetian blind man
Venetian blind man
Venetian blind man
