Millions of Lies

Open your eyes You’ll see millions of lies Outside everyday From your warm safe place You’ll hear contradiction Countless opinions They can never fade away People who suffer People who prosper There’s no escape From the outside looking in Can you move away? From this continuous change Can you squeeze your eyes? And take it on the chin When it’s time to sleep It’s time to leave This force fed poison in our veins Just to wake up again And realise that nothing’s Really going to change
