So the lie now is my weapon
Like a bush dried withered in the sun
With this spark I'll go up in flames.
I'd lay my guts out but they're too small to see
It's kinda cute how I pretend to be
Everything but the instrument I am.
Peace or happiness
So let it enfold you
A birth to life is what I'm after
My first name won't be my last one
Let the light just drip into your eyes.
So it's true my words are contrived
I tell lies just to get into your mind
I'm as fake as a widow's smile.
This mask of gla** is what I choose to wear
So I won't ever have the need to bear
The total truth to anyone but me.
Peace or happiness
So let it enfold you
A birth to life is what I'm after
My first name won't be my last one
Let the light just drip into your eyes.
The light (the light) into (into) your eyes (your eyes) all night
I'm just a bad actor stuck with a sh**ty script
All of my lines are cheap and the cast is weak
There was no music for the first time I got kissed
There was no femme fatale, my mistress wasn't rich.
So I've been formatted to fit your TV screen
The film went straight to tape, I'll bow out quietly.
So quietly. So quietly.
Please do this now I beg
Duct tape my arms and legs
Throw me into the sea
(Please save me, please save me)
[x2]
Now watch the waves eat me
Setting my cold heart free
I'll wash ashore in weeks
(You can't save me, can't save me)
Now watch the waves eat me
Setting my cold heart free
I'll wash ashore in weeks
(You can't save me, you can't save me now)
