Dave Davies The Lie!
They stripped away my innocence and left me here to die
In this sad, cold realization, there are no more tears
to cry
But I still believe in miracles, 'cause that's all I
had before
And I ain't gonna take your promises no more
They stretched the Earth's resources and built a
funeral pyre
Through the smoke the children wonder, 'neith the stark
and shattered[?] sky
There is no hope or reason while the corporations
roar[?]
Disregarding truth and sacred law
Can't you see we're living in the lie
I believed without a question why
Can't you see we're living in the lie
I believe, controlling all we think and see and do
We're living a lie
We're living a lie
They'll steal away your brightest dreams, just leaving
hollow soles
To wander in this city's grime, without a hope or home
The devil plays is final hand, the battle now begins
But no one without true love will ever win
Can't you see we're living in the lie
I believed without a question why
Can't you see we're living in the lie
I believe, controlling all we think and see and do
Oh can't you see we're living in the lie
I believed without a question why
Oh can't you see we're living in the lie
I believe, controlling all we see and think and do
We're living a lie
We're living a lie
We're living a lie
