Perfect Disease

Don’t you know we have so many questions
And we all are looking for answers
We asked you to show us the way
But you wouldn’t show us the truth

You’re such a liar
Such a perfect disease
With every word that you speak
Don’t you know that we’re all bound
 to be infected by you
So get away from me

You show us what you want us to see
And you make the truth what you want it be
Hidden in every intention
Is your selfish ambition 

You’re such a liar 
Such a perfect disease 
With every word that you speak
Don’t you know that we’re all bound 
to be infected by you
So get away from me

You judge what you do not know
You teach others to hate
You point out everyone’s sin
While you are the biggest one at fault

You’re such a liar
Such a perfect disease
With every word that you speak
Don’t you know that we’re all bound 
To be infected by you
So get away from me

Don’t you know we have so many questions
And we all are looking for answers
We asked you to show us the way
But you wouldn’t show us the truth
