Lyrics A Different Lie - Slapp Happy

A Different Lie

All the broken hearts
When they’re taken apart
Put you back where you start
There’s nothing you can do about it
And you’re not out of tune
With the shape of your room
Then what can you do
To make it any other way?
It’s a miracle he’s more awake than asleep
On a gravity wave, walking on water is easy
Caught in tremors of a violent kind
Two worlds, two minds
You sink like a stone
Too right!
you’re on your own
With a trick of the light, turning day into night
Made me feel so sad, unsatisfied
Like a reason that’s past had no reason to last
Picking up the pieces, walking on broken glass
Reaching for the crystal glass
But then the band played on
That’s what’s called «amore»
Though we could try it mine
Let’s do it your way
All the broken hearts
When they’re taken apart
Put you back where you start
Looking for a different lie
Like a reason that’s past had no reason to last
Picking up the pieces, can’t trust too much
