It's the core of our existance, the reason to rhyme

The logic of persistance, why we all toe the line

It's a matter of opinion, as a matter of fact

We all play the game, even though the deck is stacked

As we struggle to get by, our nerves get frayed

And we don't want to face the music that our actions have played

But the song of the Sirens', draws our ships to the rocks

And the door flings wide, when opportunity knocks
