|
The city hides the secrets of the liars in the streets |
|
The phone calls and assurances all for nothing (but looking good) |
|
Every time the truth comes out its pushed away and pushed aside |
|
But I won't stand and watch it all |
|
It all go unsaid |
|
How many times will I fall victim to this It's normal by now |
|
No one helps each other up we push one another back down |
|
It's sad to see these people |
|
And the apathy they have |
|
I hope one day they lose it all for the choices they made |
|
Out in the open there's the air of brotherhood |
|
And spoken truth yet everyone knows what goes on behind these closed doors |
|
Do tell no one cares about the heart no one cares about the past |
|
I've seen the way we treat each other |
|
So keep smiling through your teeth |
|
Don't ever tell me you're telling the truth |
|
Don't ever think you can speak my name |
|
When did we stray from what we stand for |
|
When did it all mean nothing to you |
|
It's hard to find honest mind in this city |
|
And I keep hoping someone will speak up |
|
It's hard to find honest mind in this city |
|
And I keep hoping hoping someone will speak up |
|
I've seen how all of this ends |
|
And I promise It's worth whoever it offends |
|
What happened to what we believed in |
|
And I have seen how all of this ends |
|
Sleepwalking our way to contentment |
|
I wont just let it be and let you smile through your teeth |
|
You call yourself human |
|
So say it straight to me |
|
We're sleepwalking all the way to contentment |
|
When will somebody speak up |
|
We're sleepwalking all the way to contentment |
|
When will somebody speak up speak up |
|
Don't ever tell me you're telling the truth |
|
And don't ever think don't ever think |
|
And don't ever think you can speak my name |
