Lie to them
cause all you really want, it's out there
and I know what you're going through, and it's not fair
so find out where you're headed, and take me there
And lie to everyone, lie to me
and all the people you used to know
in the ages since you've been home
You'll wear my clothes
and hide them in a song that I don't know
the lyrics aren't beautiful, they're cold like stone
and close your eyes and hear the music
does it play too slow?
And lie to everyone, lie to me
and all the people you used to know
and try remembering why you need all those reasons to be alone
oh, why leave anyone, why leave me?
is it better to be on your own?
and go where you need to go?
And lie to everyone, lie to me
and all the people you used to know
in the ages since you've been home
