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
|
