A Convenient Lie

the G O D he’s in the sky, he’s in our minds, taking up our time
the pink police they’re all around, look down at the ground don’t make a sound
it’s G D P serving up our product, taking money from our wallet, go get em boys
the economy let’s hope it’s domestic, don’t want a disturbance

don’t want to disturb us, when we’re seriously disturbed
never know behind closed doors, the never now, the clever cow
wish I could take back the time before you crossed that yellow line
before cancer ate away your mind before it burned a solid hole in the sky
now it’s come down to a solid lie baby it’s my redemption can’t lose my chance again
this time it’s real like a movie reel watching it play twenty times in my head until your dead
your dead to me alive only in thoughts I’ll bring you back make you live just trust in me
but trust is hard when you’re staring back through a cage of bars see me glaring back
could’ve saved you then I had better things way back when I had golden wings

CHORUS
what’s your name, are you sane, (tell me)
who are you, who are you
the never now, the present tense
who are you, who are you really

searching behind what I once tried to lock I would burst on in but I’m afraid to knock
living ever watchful in a cloud of doubt, always pondering what life’s about
I wish I had done it when the haze set in but now it’s gone now it’s broken
it’s shattered like the mirror I saw a long long time ago I held it in my hand but it slipped on through
the grains of sand cutting through the flesh of dying aquatic the maze of blood it’s all chaotic
automatic dogma man equals god if he eats the apple but I’m allergic to fructose so I dive on in
the benzene rings a noose to my tender neck just wanna lie down my head and begin my rest
the truth is this we’re already dead so stop debating and cut off my head
I want to save you once again but like before I waited too long and now my chance is gone
and I’m just regretting everything I ever did

CHORUS
what’s your name, are you sane, (tell me)
who are you, who are you
the never now, the present tense
who are you, who are you really

wandering through the darkness, I think I’ve found my love
