Deny the Lies
Deny the lies
Remember the cries that I utter
I fear this...I fear that
Someone will eavesdrop
And deny those implicit lies
They don't see it
They won't believe it
I can't hide my confessions
My bones are no longer fit to fight
If you only knew what kind of rejections
I face every day
Now this world has turned away
Deny these filthy lies
Don't creep in on them
No one told me you were leaving
Stricken by words
Crippled by your powerless passions
You will never know
I have been tripped with your outbursts
Don't bother...leave me in the dust
You must
Return with all the hope you have left
Yet there's a feeling of betrayal
Your face is awfully pale
Disguise as a defender
Don't be embraced by vultures
Run as you can...
Toil and misery is waiting beneath your bed with lacking, misleading eyes
Greed is rushing through me...your innocent...you could defend yourself
I am angry and torn by discernment
Deny the lies
It's almost like a crooked radio repeating a verse that's dragging
Do you realize it is a reaction
That separated
The truth and twisted it into violence
Acid is crawling side to side
Get ready to collide
I am wrapped in dripping lies
Deny this...I told you so
Enraptured deadness
Sweeps upon a destroyed village
We can explore it
It would be unreal
We don't have to pay a deal
I hear your cries
But I can't help but remind you
Deny the lies
Though life's a trampled street
Deny the lies
