dark fantasies where dewy Lacewings dance on rainbow strings
and well it's dark cause such pretending ignores the situation
and when it comes to the truth it'll flag you down
with headphones you can't hear the engine but it's still coming on
(so you should have heard me out)
i rode into town on a steel horse and you moved me
i hit something and didn't know what that was till i went through it
cause when you said "close your eyes, i'm right beside you"
you instead stood in the sights of this railroad passage
and it's the very lie that the liar of the hour has come to put faith in
and if the very heart of our journey is a lie then it couldn't just be me..
whom gets hurt now
why is it more consequences than you should have to accept?
it's a simple formula, you make the bed you lay in it.
you better learn to accept it and stop
trying to kid us both
that you ever put me anything but last
when lying thinking only of yourself
still lying
thinking only of yourself
you say give me another chance and i'll prove it
but when it comes to yesterday you can't undo it
and when it comes to the truth i've been after
you just want to look ahead and say it's a small matter
and if the very truth of the matter is so small then why couldn't you tell me?(all this time)
and if the very heart of our journey is so small then what are we?(all this time)
and if the very truth of the matter is unimportant....(all this time)
if the very heart of our journey was a lie then where were we? i know,
i know we're no where now
don't tell me about your hurt
never considered how i feel
still talkin about yourself
(i'm done talkin about that)
why is it more consequences than you should have to accept?
it's a simple formula, you make the bed you lay in it.
you better learn to accept it and stop
trying to kid us both
that you ever put me anything but last
when lying thinking only of yourself
still lying
thinking only of yourself
still lying
thinking only of yourself
i just don't have time for this
it's going no where
i've already passed it by
life can't regress
i'm done talkin about that
