Nero’s Game
Words and Music © Shane Richards 2017 All rights reserved

Strange...days indeed
Got everything
but what I need

Wait...been waiting so long
While all around
been going so wrong

The old man watches from afar
Laughing, as we tear ourselves apart

Freeze! Don’t be afraid
You won’t get hurt
if you do what I say

Scream...wish it away
turn around
They come back again

The old man watches from afar
Laughing, as we tear ourselves apart,
and start to drive each other crazy
Oh, my god! Is that the time?
Set the table, bring me wine!
Grab that fiddle, time to play
It’s all a part of Nero’s little game

Here, let me explain
I've got three steps on
“How to keep out of the rain”

So please...don’t be unsafe
We know what’s best for you,
So get out of the way

Just get out of the way

The old man watches from afar
Laughing, as we tear ourselves apart
and start to drive each other crazy
Oh, my god! Is that the time?
Set the table, bring me wine!
Grab that fiddle, time to play
It’s all a part of Nero’s Game
The old man watches from afar
Laughing, as we tear ourselves apart
and start to drive each other crazy
Oh, my god! Is that the time?
Set the table, bring me wine!
Grab that fiddle, time to play
It’s all a part of Nero’s little game
