It ain't kind and it ain't right, but when you wore away the shine what did you find...
Still you would say you're not afraid, to lay down your bones on the bed you've made...
Someone made a sound, it turned you right round
I wasn't cold enough to care, but brother I dared
See it tear you up, and it calls your bluff
When the lie that keeps you warm, is the truth you're counting on
There's a shadow in the sun, and it crawls along the path from whence you've come
It's not as clear as you had planned
Feel the sun go down, turn and make your stand
Trying to account for the troubles you've found
Hey could you use a little help to be honest with yourself
See it tear you up, and it calls your bluff
When the lie that keeps you warm, is the truth you're counting on
Up in the clouds, tell me sister are you coming down
There's a lie in every town oh (…)
And every word and every sound oh (…)
See it tear you up, and it calls your bluff
When the lie that keeps you warm, is the truth you're counting on
