Dave Davies - The Lie! lyrics

They stripped away my innocence and left me here to die In this sad, cold realization, there are no more tears to cry But I still believe in miracles 'cause that's all I had before And I ain't gonna take your promises no more. They stretched the Earth's resources and built a funeral pyre Through the smoke the children wonder 'neith the stark and shattered sky There is no hope or reason while the cooperations roar Disreguarding truth and sacred law. Can't you see we're living in the lie? I believed without a question why Can't you see we're living in the lie? I believe, controlling all we think and see and do. We're living a lie We're living a lie. They'll steal away your brightest dreams, just leaving hollow soles To wander in this city's grime without a hope or home The devil plays is final hand, the battle now begins But no one without true love will ever win. Can't you see we're living in the lie? I believed without a question why Can't you see we're living in the lie I believe, controlling all we think and see and do. Oh can't you see we're living in the lie? I believed without a question why Oh can't you see we're living in the lie? I believe, controlling all we see and think and do. We're living a lie We're living a lie We're living a lie.
