It ain't kind and it ain't right, but when you wore away the shine what did you find...

Still you would say you're not afraid, to lay down your bones on the bed you’ve made...

Someone made a sound, it turned you right round

I wasn't cold enough to care, but brother I dared

See it tear you up, and it calls your bluff

When the lie that keeps you warm, is the truth you're counting on

There's a shadow in the sun, and it crawls along the path from whence you've come

It's not as clear as you had planned

Feel the sun go down, turn and make your stand

Trying to account for the troubles you’ve found

Hey could you use a little help to be honest with yourself

See it tear you up, and it calls your bluff

When the lie that keeps you warm, is the truth you're counting on

Up in the clouds, tell me sister are you coming down

There’s a lie in every town oh (…)

And every word and every sound oh (…)

See it tear you up, and it calls your bluff

When the lie that keeps you warm, is the truth you're counting on
