Lies (Baumann/Schory) - July ’03

Behind your back you can hear the voices chatter.
They destroy you with their banter.
And they distrust you cause you mumble to yourself.
They say you’re a basket case they give no compassion
And nothing you say can ever truly matter.

Chorus:
They tore you up they took away your pride,
what happiness you had inside I can’t do anything at all.
Don’t look to me for all the answers, I’m not God, I’m not your father.
I don’t know why they treat you so.

Dry off your tears, they are wasted on these feelings
They’re not worthy of your anger.
Don’t blame yourself, no good will come of it.
Find love in a friend who will make your Tuesday mornings bright.
Not in some creep who makes your Friday nights and Saturdays insane.

Chorus

Close your ears and dry your eyes.
It’s a pick-me-up you need, not a put-me-down.
Let them see who you really are. Lies can only take you so far.
So trust yourself to speak.

Chorus 2x
