Can't believe the thoughts we thought we knew
Never breathing in the facts at school
How were we supposed to know
That all the thoughts that we were told
to think, were true?
What a crushing blow below the belt
All the truths we told were never felt.
Face the facts,
Just lick the lie.
Your eyes get wide,
Lose track of time.
Waste away your evenings on the trail,
Trying to expose how much you've failed.
Face the facts,
Just taste your dream,
Pull out the strings,
Chew on the seams.
When we lived
We lived for us
And we did
But the truth be told
Was set in stone
But what's unknown
Is why we question
"What's real?"
When we spoke
We spoke of love
And how it was
For everyone
Not just ourselves.
We had it figured out,
From the beginning..
Can't believe the facts we brought to you
Didn't include a single shred of truth
Don't know why
we thought we knew.
We had our say,
But all of you
Were right, and didn't fight.
We separated fact from fiction then,
Gloating that we had the upper hand
Kept on going
Our own way
Persuading friends
To go astray
Then when we hit the line
The end of it
We saw the truth
And we accepted it
Because it's written
In stone.
