Rest assured, they're weighing words in sympathetic ink
And they don't waste their time suspending disbelief
They face the facts with thinking caps
They map out and display
But that's not the only way

Common sense won't pay the rent, and doesn't grow on trees
But splitting hairs can get you anything you need
Who would've thought connecting dots might get you to the point?
But charity's a rarity
Almost as much as modesty

Take the bait!
And stay however long it takes
Before you lay to rest
However much it takes

Rest assured they're weighing words in sympathetic ink
And I don't waste my time suspending disbelief
Masterminds want bottom lines that map out and display
If I have every bit of faith
I won't be turning in my grave

Take the bait!
And stay however long it takes
Before you lay to rest
However much it takes. Yeah

Take your own advice
Before you take a side
Run for middle ground

Take the bait
And stay however long it takes
Before you lay to rest
However much it takes
Before you lie and wait
However long it takes
