An Honest Man by Nineteen Eighty-Eight

"Be consistent, but inconsistent within your consistencies and they will never find you."

-Tomas Eddison

Lyrics:

Neon signs hum in the blackened air

Shadows dance but no one's there

A heartbeat echoes through the steel

This city’s a cage

It doesn’t feel

 

[Prechorus]

Flickering lights in the dark

A flame ignites

A single spark

 

[Chorus]

Look into my eyes and understand

I got no time for lies I'm an honest man

The truth cuts deeper than the blade you hold

In a world so cold

So cold

 

[Verse 2]

A synth wind howls

A distant cry

The past reflects in a glassy sky

Footsteps fade on a broken street

The ground beneath feels incomplete

 

[Prechorus]

Flickering lights in the haze

Lost in the maze of these endless days

 

[Chorus]

Look into my eyes and understand

I got no time for lies I'm an honest man

The truth burns brighter than the neon glow

In a world so low

So low
