Verse
He Reads Your Fears Like Letters In The Mail,
Knows Just Which Ones Will Always Fail.
To Him You Are Unique As He Steals Every Word That You Speak.
He Offers Warmth Like Fire In The Snow,
But Lets It Burn Too Fast Too Low.
You Think You’re Safe Within His Quiet Flame,
But Now You're Cold And Without A Name.
He Paints His Past In Shades
Of Smoke And Blue,
With Stories Sweet But Never Quite The Truth.
You Trace His Words Like Maps Across The Sea,
But Every Route Was Drawn To Lose The Key.
Chorus
Cause We’re Gentlemen
We Lie And Deceive
But We’ll Hold The Door
When It’s Time To Leave
We’re Gentlemen
We Only Have Greed
We’ll Talk To You
When It’s Time To Feed
We Tell You That You’re Pretty And We Tell You That You’re Cute
But Truth Is We May Just Be A Demon In A Suit
We Speak In Gentle Voices And We Laugh At All Your Jokes
But Underneath The Charm, We’re Just Some Well-Dressed Hungry Ghost
Cause We’re Gentlemen!
Verse
He Holds Your Trust Like Whiskey In A Glass,
Lets Time Go Slow, Then Watches It All Pass.
You Speak In Truths; About What You Miss—
And Turns Your Silence Into His Abyss.
He Offers Truth In Riddles Wrapped In Lace,
Then Dares You Not To Lose The Race.
You Chase The Meaning In His Eyes
Goodbye
He Paints His Past In Shades
Of Smoke And Blue,
With Stories Sweet But Never Quite The Truth.
You Trace His Words Like Maps Across The Sea,
But Every Route Was Drawn To Lose The Key.
Chorus
Cause We’re Gentlemen
We Lie And Deceive
But We’ll Hold The Door
When It’s Time To Leave
We’re Gentlemen
We Only Have Greed
We’ll Talk To You
When It’s Time To Feed
We Tell You That You’re Pretty And We Tell You That You’re Cute
But Truth Is We May Just Be A Demon In A Suit
We Speak In Gentle Voices And We Laugh At All Your Jokes
But Underneath The Charm, We’re Just Some Well-Dressed Hungry Ghost
Bridge
Cause We’re Gentlemen!
Cause We’re Gentlemen!
Cause We’re Gentlemen!
Cause We’re Gentlemen!
Cause We’re Gentlemen!
Cause We’re Gentlemen
Chorus
We Lie And Deceive
But We’ll Hold The Door
When It’s Time To Leave
We’re Gentlemen
We Only Have Greed
We’ll Talk To You
When It’s Time To Feed
We Tell You That You’re Pretty And We Tell You That You’re Cute
But Truth Is We May Just Be A Demon In A Suit
We Speak In Gentle Voices And We Laugh At All Your Jokes
But Underneath The Charm, We’re Just Some Well-Dressed Hungry Ghost
Cause We’re Gentlemen!
