Long Time Lie
It's been a while since you did something
Not so long since you complained
You sit around here doing nothing
Every day
You're the coward who points the finger
I understand that I'm helping you
You have delusions in some space-out fantasy
That's what you do
He loves to wallow in the glory
Loves to cut you down to size
Try to make you believe in all of his lies
It's been a long long long long long long time
It's been a long long long long long long time
A long time lie
Don't you ever look in the mirror
Don't you know there's so much more
Locked up inside that box behind your door
All your twisted conversations
When you're sitting all alone
Just remember we know your secret
While you moan
He loves to wallow in the glory
Loves to cut you down to size
Try to make you believe in all his lies
It's been a long long long long long long time
It's been a long long long long long long time
A long time lie
Not so long since you complained
You sit around here doing nothing
Every day
You're the coward who points the finger
I understand that I'm helping you
You have delusions in some space-out fantasy
That's what you do
He loves to wallow in the glory
Loves to cut you down to size
Try to make you believe in all of his lies
It's been a long long long long long long time
It's been a long long long long long long time
A long time lie
Don't you ever look in the mirror
Don't you know there's so much more
Locked up inside that box behind your door
All your twisted conversations
When you're sitting all alone
Just remember we know your secret
While you moan
He loves to wallow in the glory
Loves to cut you down to size
Try to make you believe in all his lies
It's been a long long long long long long time
It's been a long long long long long long time
A long time lie
