Sweet Talk
He gives the people what they want
That's why it kills them
He ain't know better cause he faints at the sight of blood and
He thought so hard about freedom that he sold himself to
The fools that he caught stealing dirt from his backyard
Ohh
How can you argue about the sun with a stone?
Oh I bet she puts on his clothes
Though he'd rather dance around in his fancy robe so
My god I heard he set a city on fire
Just to rise with the smoke cause he knows he's a liar
(It's good to be a liar)
And sweet talking got him all he desired
But you can't heal a gunshot with a prayer and a smile
No you can't heal a gunshot with a prayer and a smile
Stands with an arrow to his chest
Cause lies don't count from godly men
If doomsday catches him he can faint on the spot
He thought so hard about power that he sold his will to
Some guys who promised bills to build his house of cards
Ohh
How can you argue about life with a ghost?
Oh I bet he hates being alone
With no one to blame but the cash in his coat so
My god I heard he set a city on fire
Just to rise with the smoke cause he knows he's a liar
(It's good to be a liar)
And sweet talking got him all he desired
But you can't heal a gunshot with a prayer and a smile
No you can't heal a gunshot with a prayer and a smile
Ohh and when we burn we burn as one
The world don't have no grace when you have done her wrong
Said we were going to the sun
But you ain't the type that's meant for life on the run so
My god I heard he set the city on fire
Just to rise with the smoke cause he knows he's a liar
(It's good to be a liar)
And sweet talking got him all he desired
But you can't heal a gunshot with a prayer and a smile
No you can't heal a gunshot with a prayer and a smile
No you can't heal a gunshot with a prayer and a smile
Fu———!
