The Maple Street Project: Music & Lyrics

• MP3 play whole song, hi-fi (broadband)

Candy from the candy man
Snickers for your oul
Can’t place your trust in anyone
Whose aim is not their goal.

Lay back with open eyes
Watch closely side to side
Could be it’s best to take your time,
It’s you who must decide.

Much too sweet can’t be good.
Too much will rot your mind
Only take what you should
And leave the rest behind.

Jumpin’ in with both your feet
And eyes mostly shut
Never know where you might land
Just gotta go with your gut

Chorus
It’s a high stakes game
Heavy hitters and high rollers
And it’s never quite the same
When you place your bets with someone else’s heart,
When you place your bets with someone else’s heart.

Too dark for color
Too bright for sleep
From here I see everything
As it’ meant to be

Dawn hints of daylight
Night’s rays recede
I drink in this moment
And then I proceed

Chorus

It’s hard to know what’s true
Don’t know what to believe
There’s a fool in every crowd
Sometimes that fool is me

So it isn’t any wonder
That it’s hard to gain my trust
When riding with strangers
Not easy to adjust.

Chorus
