Some can't stand the sound of a little lie
But why let the truth in the way of a good time?
These words fall out like a lullaby
Sweet connotations all covered in spite
How virtuous the face of a saint comes across like
But you can see the cracks in the mask in the bright light
When everything round me falls apart
I should know better than to paint things over
I should know better than to fake my life
I should know better than to shade white lies
Dishonesty binds me
Dishonesty binds me to you
I should know better than to walk on ice
I should know better than to shade white lies
Dishonesty binds me
Dishonesty binds me to you
And it's fair to brand me a parasite
For what it's worth, you're only half right
How eloquently versed is the bird from the snakebite
Now trauma bringing words and deceit to a knife fight
When everything round me falls apart
I should know better than to paint things over
I should know better than to fake my life
I should know better than to shade white lies
Dishonesty binds me
Dishonesty binds me to you
I should know better than to walk on ice
I should know better than to shade white lies
Dishonesty binds me
Dishonesty binds me to you
