Somebody Must Be Lying

Somebody Must Be Lying

Kiss the sunrise goodbye
Ride the sunset down the sky
Somebody thought it was cool to be dark
And now his mind is at war with his heart
And this is what it feels like
To never feel

Whisper that I love you
On an iron-willed cue
Somebody claimed that he hated the world
But dove right into it to find him a girl
And now this is what it tastes like
Bittersweet words of steel

A childhood spent behind the window sill
He's all grown but he's lookin for the right line still
Somebody stuck a grenade
Into the one song he never played
And this is what it sounds like
Now that i've tried

Somewhere in this world somebody is laughin'
While the one who told the joke is on the verge of snappin'
Somebody dreamed of being king too late
So he slithered his way past the gate
And this is what it looks like
On the other side

Swear you'll never give in again
Until the stench makes it too much to pretend
Somebody caught himself the scent of pleasure
And it conjured a past too vast to measure
And this is what it smells like
To live in chains of perfume

Pull one last thought out of the fray
And escape out onto the highway
Somebody said that ignorance is bliss
It must be true cuz im awake in the abyss
And this is aint what it seems like
To sense in myself a tomb

Somebody must be lying

Author's Note

Meant to be sung along with some basic acoustic chords
