Lies Play

Lights burn bright filling skies of gray 
Tonights the night that lies will play 
Sickening and woahing an audience of one 
Burning a fire glowing for none 
Wrecking lives with plans they say to follow 
Tonight is the night let's Prey for tomorrow
Tonights the night that lies will play 
Some will leave you others will stay  
Burning down your statue with flames of dismay 
Tongue twisting lies set out to win
As Young misting tides let us soak up the sin 
Tonights the night that lies will play 
Tonights the night that sinners prey 
Forgiveness and salvation 
For the damned across the nation 
Yes tonight's the night that lies will play 
Tonights the night let's hear what you say
