Lyrics

[00:00.99] Our lungs are chokin' in the haze
[00:03.23] Distortion comes in waves
[00:04.49] Gotta get away from the lies and the liars
[00:07.92] Hearts are hand grenades
[00:08.98] Sharp like razorblades
[00:10.54] Gotta make a break from the lies and the liars
[00:13.79]
[00:23.99] Wind me up and then let me go
[00:26.61] A sabotage low in every flow
[00:27.73] Stacking em up like a domino
[00:29.17] Knock em all down with a single blow
[00:30.85] Burn a bridge just to watch it fall
[00:32.42] Flood the engine to see it stall
[00:33.80] Things so small make you feel so tall
[00:35.42] Push my back up against the wall
[00:37.11] A tall tale to tell
[00:38.48] A hard sale to sell
[00:39.93] A break down
[00:40.92] You're lying to yourself
[00:42.23] A tall tale to tell
[00:44.23] You're just an empty shell
[00:45.79] A break down
[00:47.23] You're lying to yourself
[00:48.86] Half-Truth and lies
[00:50.17] Empty alibis
[00:50.67] Cut me down to size
[00:52.98] Turns out the jokes on you
[00:54.61] You can't disguise
[00:55.85] Better recognize
[00:57.24] I won't sympathize
[00:58.85] Turns out the joke's on you
[01:04.53] Shoot me down with a ricochet
[01:06.61] Poison tongue and a price to pay
[01:09.11] Sweeping down like a bird of prey
[01:10.42] To tear me apart right where I lay
[01:11.68] Turn a question into a brawl
[01:13.05] Mix some vengeance with alcohol
[01:14.48] Break my will just to see me crawl
[01:16.30] Push my back up against the wall
[01:17.67] A tall tale to tell
[01:19.23] A hard sale to sell
[01:20.54] A break down
[01:22.29] You're lying to yourself
[01:23.61] A tall tale to tell
[01:24.99] You're just an empty shell
[01:26.42] A break down
[01:27.48] You're lying to yourself
[01:29.61] Half-Truth and lies
[01:30.92] Empty alibis
[01:32.17] Cut me down to size
[01:33.92] Turns out the jokes on you
[01:35.29] You can't disguise
[01:36.61] Better recognize
[01:37.86] I won't sympathize
[01:38.92] Turns out the joke's on you
[01:41.04]
[01:51.57] Our lungs are chokin' in the haze
[01:53.65] Distortion comes in waves
[01:55.15] Gotta get away from the lies and the liars
[01:58.15] Hearts are hand grenades
[01:59.40] Sharp like razorblades
[02:00.96] Gotta make a break from the lies and the liars
[02:03.97] Our lungs are chokin' in the haze
[02:05.58] Distortion comes in waves
[02:06.71] Gotta get away from the lies and the liars
[02:09.72] Hearts are hand grenades
[02:11.15] Sharp like razorblades
[02:12.59] Gotta make a break from the lies and the liars
[02:15.71] Half-Truth and lies
[02:17.40] Empty alibis
[02:18.71] Cut me down to size
[02:20.27] Turns out the jokes on you
[02:21.84] You can't disguise
[02:23.22] Better recognize
[02:24.52] I won't sympathize
[02:26.01] Turns out the joke's on you
[02:27.76] Half-Truth and lies
[02:29.01] Empty alibis
[02:30.38] Cut me down to size
[02:31.83] Turns out the jokes on you
[02:33.45] You can't disguise
[02:34.89] Better recognize
[02:36.13] I won't sympathize
[02:36.96] Turns out the joke's on you
