Ninth Inch

Liar Oh yes Oh yes, liar they'd call me If they could see my thoughts Broken dreams, they manifest Desire to control the rest Your little liar controls the way you move Inches over the line That separates sane from not Inches over the line That keeps you safe Oh yes Nothing's turning out the way I planned Oh yes The dreams that broke all manifest Complete control is what I lust Inches over the line That was drawn to keep you safe Inches over the line That was drawn to keep it in Nothing can stop me now I doubt you'd want to anyway Nothing can stop me now And that's just the way you like it Nothing can stop me now I doubt you'd want to anyway Nothing can stop me now And that's just the way I like it
