Underlying Lies
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I don't feel like I know you
Flawed in trust and in truth, you fake excuse
From the moment that I wake up
You taste the venom in your tea cup
As I look out the window
All I see is a deadly row of eyes
With no colour in their makeup
Many cracks in a mask that hides disgrace
In the paper, there's a headline
"A vicious cloud weighs the sky down tonight"
They forsee a bloody screaming
In the palms of a man who is seething
I can smell your fake smile now
The glue sets on a face you wear proud
Remind me who the hell you are
I don't remember thinking we were ever friends
Spare me your bullshit
Cracking a smile disguises
All the underlying lies
They're bursting from your eyes
You're the traitor with a pounding head
As you drank another toast to the living dead
It's not wise to celebrate so soon
The party's over and you're sweeping up the room
I'm only glad that I brushed you aside
Cause I was choking on the dust from you empty mind
You're full of promises unpaid
This only serves to remind me you're a fake
A counterfeit will break
