QUEENIE - Song "sounds" celtic but its actually not - fantastic artist though - some really nice tunes!

We're all so sure
We're all so wise
No limits
No boundaries
No compromise.
Laughing at our neighbor
Smiling through a hiss
How did we come to this?

We're all amuse
We're all inspired
So cunning
So clever
And so admired
Easy to be angry
Easy to dismiss
How did we come to this?

Maybe I've been living in a daydream
Maybe I've been talking in my sleep
If I've been awake
Pardon my mistake
But time is running low
And talk is growing cheap.

We play our games
We place our bets
No witness
No weakness
And no regrets.
Filling up with frenzy
Killing with a kiss
How did we all come to this?

Time goes by
Plans grow stale
People die
And parties fail
How did we come to this?

ENSEMBLE
She had grey eyes,
Lips like coals aglow.
And her face was a tinted mask of snow.

A fascinating woman
As they go.

Nah - CJ would have been onto this straight away - he knows all his lyrics.

Though I often say myself "how did it come to this" whenever I hear him play!
