no more lies.

in shadows thrown by yellow lights
the speakers pound and the bodies writhe
i couldn't name all the places i've been
breathing cigarette smoke and a thousand sins
wondering if i, i could have lost my way...

sink into a chair at the back of the room
blinded by a sense of doom
a whisper of doubt run up my spine
shoots through the haze into my mind
i'm wondering if i, i could have lost my way
led astray... 

by all of the
bright lights 
on the way down
and the consequences of that now 
are these electric days in a carefree daze
surrounded by a crowd but there's no meaning
i'm feeling out of control, i don't know what to think
except i'm standing at the crossroads
of a story etched in indelible ink
and in ten years 
i will be right here
still blind

well i want more from the world
it's time for me to wake up
and face what's in my soul
the fickle girl with the promising eyes
a dreamer afraid to even try
an optimist with a cynical smile
but no more lies
no more lies
no more lies
no more lies
yeah (x4)

and the fear of failing made me freeze
so i trembled when he set me free
and promised that he'd hold my hand
oh when everything else came to an end
but i wonder if i, i could have lost my way
led astray...

as he showed me the
bright lights
on the way down
and the consequences of that now
are these carefree days in a summer haze
the sun on my back but i'm still
so cold, and all alone
and i can't hide from all the people i know
and the right things, the expected dreams
how life goes by every time i blink
and i'm back there
in that same chair
still blind

but i want more from the world
it's time for me to wake up
and face what's in my soul
the fickle girl with the promising eyes
the dreamer with a careful life
an optimist with a cynical smile
but no more lies
no more lies
no more lies
no more lies
yeah

(with a smile on your face and love in your heart)

yeah

(as the world fades away we’ll dance in the dark)

yeah

(as the skylines come crumbling down)

yeah

(the lights go out and the warnings sound)

yeah
(our dark days are over now, we tell)

(no more lies

no more lies)

yeah

(no more lies

no more lies)
