Living a Lie
I see the good in people
I see the good in me
But, what if there's nobody
That deserves to be happy
This could be all illusion
Everything that we see
What if we are all here
'Cause we've chosen misery
Religion's a distraction
And peace will never happen
'Cause there are way too many people
Who refuse to take action
They don't want you to be happy
'Cause they're not happy for themselves
And why bother even trying
If we're all living in hell
Is this really what life is then
One big fat fucking lie
We believe a bunch of dead men
Over anyone alive
If only that would sink in
Then people might open their eyes
To see all the truth around them
But don't we all love living a lie
Nothing lasts forever right
Isn't that what they all say
"Grab the reigns of life and hold on tight
'Cause you'll be dead someday
Yeah you'll be dead some day"
But, what if that's not true at all
And all our high hopes will only ever fall
And there's no one to hear all our desperate calls
'Cause "God's" the one behind it all
Is this really what life is then
One big fat fucking lie
We believe a bunch of dead men
Over anyone alive
If only that would sink in
Then people might open their eyes
To see all the truth around them
But don't we all love living a lie
I see the good in me
But, what if there's nobody
That deserves to be happy
This could be all illusion
Everything that we see
What if we are all here
'Cause we've chosen misery
Religion's a distraction
And peace will never happen
'Cause there are way too many people
Who refuse to take action
They don't want you to be happy
'Cause they're not happy for themselves
And why bother even trying
If we're all living in hell
Is this really what life is then
One big fat fucking lie
We believe a bunch of dead men
Over anyone alive
If only that would sink in
Then people might open their eyes
To see all the truth around them
But don't we all love living a lie
Nothing lasts forever right
Isn't that what they all say
"Grab the reigns of life and hold on tight
'Cause you'll be dead someday
Yeah you'll be dead some day"
But, what if that's not true at all
And all our high hopes will only ever fall
And there's no one to hear all our desperate calls
'Cause "God's" the one behind it all
Is this really what life is then
One big fat fucking lie
We believe a bunch of dead men
Over anyone alive
If only that would sink in
Then people might open their eyes
To see all the truth around them
But don't we all love living a lie
