Everybody Loves The Lie

Everybody loves the lie
everybody loves the lie.
People talk about truth and light
they claim they wanna do what’s right
but in their dreams in the middle of the night
they really love the lie
everybody knows about wrong and right
and everybody loves the lie.

Everybody wants the lie
everybody wants the lie
it could be money and it might be sex
it’s got somethin’ to do with gettin’ respect
the closer you get to the day you die
the more you’re gonna want the lie
to ease the pain of an unlived life
everybody wants the lie.

Everybody lives the lie
everybody lives the lie
when you see the contradiction clear
just close your eyes it’ll disappear
in the warm darkness deep inside
you’re gonna live your lie
you can kiss your simple ways goodbye
‘cause everybody lives, everybody lives the lie
cross my heart and hope to die
everybody loves the lie
everybody loves the lie...
