Tokyo Time - Baton Rouge

We cut a perfect diamond

Out of sync and vague

It bleeds from the heart, it’s fallen apart

It’s all a big mistake

So many words unspoken

Are lost into the fall

It’s headed for dark of powder and spark

The final curtain call

Cut a perfect diamond

And then a perfect lie

You and me, we don’t disagree

We’re full tilt compromise

It isn’t hard to make a blind man see

You’re living on Tokyo time

Living on Tokyo time

Once we had the answers

Once we had the key

Then came the rain, the thundering strain

A ghost ship on the sea

I try to understand you

I don’t know where it’s lost

A haunting inside, a swallowing pride

A fairytale will cost

Once we had the answers

Now we have the lies

You and me, we don’t disagree

We’re full tilt compromise

It isn’t hard to make a blind man see

You’re living on Tokyo time

Living on Tokyo time

I’ve taken all I can

Ain’t no beggar in a foreign land

And I’ve never had to hide

I’m never gonna meet you in Tokyo time

I thought we had a diamond

But all we have is ice

You and me, we don’t disagree

We’re full tilt compromise

It isn’t hard to make a blind man see

You’re living on Tokyo time

Living on Tokyo time

You and me, we don’t disagree

We’re full tilt compromise

It isn’t hard to make a blind man see

You’re living on Tokyo time

Living on Tokyo time
