You gotta love the lie

You gotta love the lie

Love(love) life (life)

Love(love) God, girls and lies

I can't hear through those veneers

But you keep speaking with those pearly whites

Love the life that you live if it gives love back

You aint gotta stay together for the kids

If you want to disappear don't announce it

Vanish in thin air and bounce quick

Fix the cowlick slick your hair back

Ride the rim bare back you stared at

Lady Godiva might have been an exhibitionist

I'm not here to judge voyeuristic fetishes

If nobody looked its a closed book

You could put your hang ups on a coat hook

I'm from a puritanical land where they burn witches

I'm the result of a welfare runnin up your sickness

Cure never came jesus never helped

We were all to blame god beat us with a belt

If I heard your name I'd retreat into myself

I won't hurt your name I'll keep it to myself with

Love (love) life (life)

Love(God) girls and lies

I can't hear you through those veneers

But you keep speaking through those pearly whites

No legacy to claim no enemies to squelch

No chemical imbalance that could remedy yourself

Pedestals for the parents medicine is on the shelf

Put the trophy in the spotlight watch as it melts

Metal would've survive plastic is cheaper

Ran into the fire she asked me to leave her

I did what I could with the wood and the flammables

Stood with the good little animals ran with the bulls

Soot on my hands that were full put the good book on the mantle

Burn baby burn you could serve as a candle

Last thing I heard was her on the piano

Last thing I saw was her being her self

By beating her self to see if it could help

If I heard your name I'd retreat into myself

I won't hurt your name I'll keep it to myself with

Love (love) life (life)

Love(God) girls (girls) and lies

I can't hear through those veneers

But you keep speaking through those pearly whites

Love the lie

Love the lie

Love the lie
