A Better Lie

My, the level of conversation has declined
And I was hoping for more than just 'a reckoning'
It seem the time to make this right has passed us by
The invitation's been withdrawn
It's time time to find a better lie

You're never aware of what you're doing
You're never around no more
You never arrive
With all the promises of before
It's not where we've been, but where we're going
The future is clear no more
We opened our eyes but didn't understand what we saw

And we lay claim to the truth like purchased property
We see, reflected in different ways
Like light through a diamond
Is this an asset or a liability
Within the ledger of my soul
It's more that just accounting symmetry

You're never aware of what you're doing
You're never around no more
You never arrive
With all the promises of before
It's not where we've been, but where we're going
The future is clear no more
We opened our eyes but didn't understand what we saw

Break this. Remake this

So no surprise
The world is an airless place that I don't recognise
Is this where I want to stay

You're never aware of what you're doing
You're never around no more
You never arrive
With all the promises of before
It's not where we've been, but where we're going
The future is clear no more
We opened our eyes but didn't understand what we saw

Break this. Remake this

Stories come around, come around, stories come around

Shadows of the past, shadows of the past, shadows of the

Stories come around, come around, stories come around
Shadows of the past, shadows of the past, shadows of the
