The Piper
We all have done things we regret. Things that hurt others. Things that hurt us. I know I have. And for each bad thing, I have paid dearly. I have paid the Piper many times over. In fact, if I had a penny for every time that blood-sucking gangster came knocking at my door he would end up owing me. We can't run from the Piper. We can't hide from the Piper. He is a necessary evil. Or a necessary good? Maybe, he is simply justice. This song may seem dark, but it really isn't. When I wrote this song, I was thinking about how better off we all are when we take responsibility for our actions. That may sound nostalgic, but I believe it. And I hope you do to. My advice when you see the Piper. Just pay the man and move on.

Verse1. You lied to me.
And I got proof.
But I fell for it.
So, I can't blame you.
Yea, I jumped right in
with both my boots.
Now I'm knee-deep in it.
Anyway, you spin it.
I'm doomed.
Chorus. Psst! Boom!
Made another bad move.
I'm about to get screwed.
Here comes the Piper.
Here comes the Piper.
Psst! Boom!
Even if I wanted to.
Can't go back and undo.
Here comes the Piper.
Here comes the Piper.
Verse 2. We both agree
that life's unfair.
Point a finger at you?
No. I don't dare.
I went along
cause I wanted to.
Didn't want to quit it.
Now I really get it.
I'm doomed.
Chorus. Psst! Boom!
Made another bad move.
I'm about to get screwed.
Here comes the Piper.
Here comes the Piper.
Psst! Boom!
Even if I wanted to.
Can't go back and undo.
Here comes the Piper.
Here comes the Piper.
Bridge. That flute playing dude
don't care about you.
All that he wants
he gets.
We danced to his tune
in this very room.
Or did you completely
forget.
He don't take no cards,
no digital bars.
Your credit's no good
with him.
Just blood, sweat and tears,
nightmares and fears.
He'll snatch you right out
your skin.
Chorus. Psst! Boom!
Made another bad move.
I'm about to get screwed.
Here comes the Piper.
Here comes the Piper.
Psst! Boom!
Even if I wanted to.
Can't go back and undo.
Here comes the Piper.
Here comes the Piper.
