Trick of the Light

There's a housefly in the drawing salve
And a silvery sheen to conceal it from the eye
(Aye)
Still the comfrey and calendula
Will pull that thorn undone to perfume your bleeding side

'Cause it's the end
Take a leap into a new distraction
While we send
Our condolences to the unfortunate few who
Make it through the night
It's a trick of the light!
It's a trick of the light!
Its a trick of the light

So take some pleasure in the artless songs
Stick around for the show you know it's bound to send us reeling
Get your photo filters primed to go
Perhaps a sepia finish will ease the queazy feeling

That it's the end
Take a leap into a new distraction
While we send
Our condolences to the unfortunate few who
Make it through the night
It's a trick of the light!
It's a trick of the light
(It's a, It's a, It's a trick of the light)

Long live the king
It's a delicate thing
Knowing where to draw the line
Long live the king
It's a delicate thing
Knowing where to draw the line
Long live the king
It's a delicate thing
Knowing where to draw the line
Long live the king
It's a delicate thing
Knowing where to draw the line
Long live the king
It's a delicate thing
Knowing where to draw the line
Long live the king
It's a delicate thing
It's a delicate, delicate, delicate thing

Cause it's the end
Take a leap into a new distraction
While we send
Our condolences to the unfortunate few who
Make it through the night
It's a trick of the light!

End
Take a leap into a new distraction
While we send
Our condolences to the unfortunate few who
Make it through the night
It's a trick of the light!
