Tom Waits - Yesterday Is Here lyrics

Skilled Victims play their Games

A cause of violence for Fortune and Fame

Like all possessed they worship it all

Money loving mercenary Risks it all

Why can't you see the Intensity

The High that was not to be

With no decline it works every Time

Until we had enough we'll see

You can't get enough of the fucking Stuff

The rotting of the Brains a Game

Time after Time

With the loss of a Mind

You're crying out insanity

You can't afford to be

As fucking dumb as you seem

You know the Price you can't Pay

You Steal from one to Repay

The Debts of Bets, you should Die

Die

Slave to Misery

Causing Suffering

Anything causing Pain

Experiencing Agony

Torment, Torture

I don't want to see you Suffer

Slave to Misery

Causing Suffering
