Static |
It’s a tangled web we weave, an eloquent debris |
When we drape the truth in such a grotesque tapestry |
Embellished words and deeds, a fictional disguise |
Imagined glories fade beneath the weight of lies |
It’s a game we play and we agreed upon the rules |
Pretend our make-believe is basically the truth |
A mental static — a cognitive dissonance |
The lies we tell ourselves will increase in expense |
Image to cultivate, illusion to maintain |
Vulgar in sentiment and wrapped in the profane |
The cracks in the façade too numerous to count |
The points of weakness are of infinite amount |
It’s a game we play and we agreed upon the rules |
Pretend our make-believe is basically the truth |
A mental static — a cognitive dissonance |
The lies we tell ourselves will increase in expense |
The story falls apart like ruins in decay |
The truth exposed at last to the blinding light of day |
A fallen city burns where once it stood so tall |
Brought down by the deadly myth that penetrates its walls |
It’s a game we play and we agreed upon the rules |
Pretend our make-believe is basically the truth |
A mental static — a cognitive dissonance |
The lies we tell ourselves will increase in expense |
