Lay Your Wager Down 가사

You're my flesh and blood But we're not the same a common name and now a common distance I looked up to you in your plush armchair respect or fear I couldn't see the difference Lay your wager down Who'll be king in Tinsel Town? `Cause all the prophets and the gypsies on the strip in Venice Beach Have looked me in the eye and said, "Your dreams still lie in reach" and who am I to doubt them and who are you to write these speeches? Is it my poverty That brings a blush to you? Or the honesty that speaks the mind that comes with it Were you once a man with younger eyes a hungry pride that would not feel resistance? Lay your wager down They're crowning the king in Tinsel Town There are strangers, there are lovers out on Fairfax in a line They look me in the eye and say "Our thoughts are intertwined" and who am I to doubt them? And who are you to tear down these signs?
