Rational Lies
Here it is again,
The voice that scares my thoughts away
Demands attention for itself,
Itself alone, seems so unthreatening,
But promises a bitter sting
Soon my heart & mind become a battle zone
Push aside all reason,
A Sailor to a Siren's call
Excuse reality for temporary lies
Sometimes I can't believe,
The things I'll try to justify... only more lies again
[Chorus]
Get out of my head leave me alone
You're no longer welcome here
A voice so sweet with words that kill
A wicked whisper in my ear
In my time of weakness,
Is when I see your strength displayed
Screaming silently, tickling my ear
Lie! I know who you really are
& I see your hatred masked behind your smile
[Chorus]
O' wretched man, so failure prone
Who will deliver me?
I once was lost; but now I'm found
Was blind but now I see...
I once was lost but now I'm found
Was blind but can I see?
[Chorus]
