Lies - Matt Caplan

Take another look around 
These silly thoughts of mine 
Try to scrape a little feeling 
Take another piece 
A fragment of my sanity 
Try to stop my dirty dealing 

CHORUS 
I was not the one to lie 
I was never one to lose my way 
But I surrender all my time 
To constructing little rhymes 
And absolving the sublime 
But you can't ask me for the world 
'Cause I won't give it to you 

Write another letter 
About the emptiness I feel 
I won't/will be obliged to read it 
Find another reason 
To tear apart the life inside 
I'll pretend I really need it 

CHORUS 

Show me all your secrets 
Place them here before me 
Pull me out of me 
So I can see 
Just how boring life can be 
Just how ugly I can be 
Just how much I'll never see 
And I wonder who am I 
Who am I, who am I 

In another lifetime 
I could have been a stronger man 
Could have told a million stories 
On another planet 
I know I would deserve it all 
The pain, the pleasure, the glory 

CHORUS
