NO MORE MIRACLES

There are no more miracles left my friend
So you better accept the bitter end
The magician has long since vanished
Not even Houdini could escape from your mess
The chains in your brain just won't break loose

I told you not to look too hard for loopholes
Cause you'd wind up with your head inside a noose.

There's no more air so don't hold your breath
You don't deserve a prolonged minute from death
I guess you're lucky the hangin tree burnt down
You were the arsonist spreading fire around
You were sitting on dynamite when you lit that fuse

I told you not to look too hard for loopholes
Cause you'd wind up with your head inside a noose.

There are no more people the world is all yours
But what can you buy when you own all the stores
Burn all your money it might warm your bones
For it gets mighty cold when you're left all alone
I tried to tell you but it wasn't any use

I told you not to look too hard for loopholes
Cause you'd wind up with your head inside a noose.
