To Reap and Never Sow Lyrics

Album: Entropy

Give me power to unwind

The coil of destiny

To break the bloody chains that encircle me

I tie my fate to yours

I should be more afraid

Too late, I'm trapped in a devil's game

You can reach in and take some

Got in too soon

Don't care who you take from

But it always takes a little more from you

Chasing a loss

Pride at any cost

What is it worth?

I'm no better than before

Reroute, dying in pursuit of that fabled goal:

To reap and never sow

Give me everything at once

Living someone else's dreams

No patience for the hunt, I know all I need

I tried so very hard

To catch the falling knife

Now there's a dark cloud in my life

You can try to deny it

You feel the fool

It's harder to hide it

When the wheel of fortune cruelly turns on you

Chasing a loss

Pride at any cost

What is it worth?

I'm no better than before

Reroute, dying in pursuit of that fabled goal:

To reap and never sow

Modern alchemy

Making gold from others' time

While the well of life runs dry

There's no certainty

No painless way to win

In this battle we're all in

Only the favored survive

Can we take it back

Every day is just a number

Every thing that once held wonder

A choice to regret

Will you cut and run

When the wheel comes around

Or will you lose it all again
