Lies are only ways of taking control
And keeping a hold on the life we wish to lead
And honesty does nothing but destroy us
Because we cannot watch the truth
And we cannot speak the lies we wish to say
So, trouble is our friend
And the devil our companion as we walk away
Down long-lost streets, down dead-end streets
Where the alleyway becomes our end
You were once the one I had believed in
And trust was built on secrets
We didn’t give ourselves away, and so we stayed inside
In dark corners and creaky floorboards
Where you and I were you and I
And we fought the world
But curtains, they come crashing down
And every day must have its price
I thought that they would take me
Take me so very far away
So very far away from you
Instead, I never moved, and watched you walk away
With naught a goodbye
With naught a smile
With naught a love to share
Lies are only ways of taking control
And you controlled me.
