作曲 : Herin, Whittle | |
Show me what I want to see | |
If it keeps you safe | |
PART ONE | |
Tell me what I want to hear | |
And what keeps you safe | |
Talk tempts fate | |
The game is engaged | |
She plays with fire | |
Vanity sidesteps around common senses | |
Shrugging off conscience embracing pride | |
Twisted scenes bring comfort in delusion | |
Hide reality from the line of sight | |
The harvest to intrude | |
Fight proof | |
Hollow her words ringing absurd | |
Lies to save face compounds disgrace | |
Light filters through the veil exposing guilt | |
Clutch the straws of logic lost | |
Hanging on the cross | |
Ignorance lives in bliss with blinders on | |
While it shows denial is en vogue | |
Age-old wisdom's whisper dies from neglect | |
Our egos to protect | |
Now that I know | |
How little we know | |
About each other | |
Tracing an image of a portrait | |
That we wish was true | |
But the colors run | |
Faces I see | |
Tell little about | |
What to believe | |
Layers of window dressing | |
Barely hint at what's beneath | |
Covered up like paint on rust | |
Who to trust? | |
Dress the window | |
Draw the shade | |
Light and darkness trade... | |
PART TWO | |
If I can still recall | |
Simplicity seemed like nothing at all | |
Summertime days to spend without end | |
Hazy warm faint scent of pine gracing the air | |
We let our whims take us away | |
Not to return as Eden drew to a close | |
Careless deeds strip my faith | |
Heart on ice I retreat | |
I wish true were false and fiction real | |
Bit by bit the mirage fades from view | |
Never taught finally learned | |
The corner turned | |
Wish I may wish I might | |
Forget illusion's charm | |
Now that I know | |
How little we know | |
About each other | |
Tracing an image of a portrait | |
That we wish was true | |
Fashion covers all we hope to hide | |
Faces I see | |
Tell little about | |
What to believe | |
Layers of window dressing | |
Barely hint at what's beneath | |
Now that I know | |
How nothing we show | |
Really matters | |
Optimistic - pessimistic | |
Expectation to blame | |
PART THREE | |
So much happens that we can't perceive | |
Safe in a cloak of ignorance | |
With passing time childish notions finally die | |
When the pain we endure | |
Compounds with consciousness | |
Delusions to protect and survive | |
Reflecting on what I know I will never know | |
Curtains drawn concealing the light of truth |
