Lies We Told - Fallen Roses, Greco Murillo & Donovan's Playground

I've been searching in the dark Trusting every clue I've found But the truth has not been told 'Cause every corner of these woods is hollow I can't see in the dark Where are you? Where are you? Where are you? Where are you? 'Cause the rivers told me lies Sometimes light is breaking through But my blinded eyes can't reveal an illusion I can't trust it being real So I keep on wandering until I feel you Feel that you're alive Where are you? Where are you? Where are you? Ooh, where are you? 'Cause the rivers told me lies Where are you? Ooh, where are you? Where are you? Oh, where are you? 'Cause the rivers told me lies

A old man gave me a tip he said "Don't waste your time with politics" he said "Just chase skirts instead Life is too short, and you're almost dead" he said "I met a woman once, I gave her my best shot But never did I talk If I had her back, I'd be as real as my age I so don't blame them, I wouldn't do the same But I can blame them, I'd sing her this" And you want to be dressed in poetry But imagery doesn't fit And you want resizing But darling dear get a grip And I think what I just wrote is going over my head I'm stealing lines from myself And what I said was never said It's just a lyrical lie Made up in my mind And you want to be dressed in poetry But imagery doesn't fit And you want resizing But darling dear get a grip You're moving but not aware You're drowsy without a care Except keeping your whites behind your lids And your lids are your best canvas I can only imagine what you're painting, what you're painting And your body on my mattress is proof And your makeup on my pillow is proof But do you think I am telling you the truth It's just a lyrical lie Made up in my mind And you want to be dressed in poetry But imagery doesn't fit And you want resizing But darling dear get a grip And you want to be dressed in poetry But imagery doesn't fit And you want resizing But darling dear get a grip

We do what we're told We do what we're told We do what we're told Told to do We do what we're told We do what we're told We do what we're told Told to do One doubt One voice One war One truth One dream
