Status Quo Lies
I had another drink after another drink And then I tried to crawl to the door I had another smoke after another joke And then I couldn't take any more. It didn't change a thing Not any single thing When someone tried to tell me for sure. I heard another voice that said I wasn't in a dream I read a word or two about ev'rything I never knew the way that it ought to have been They never told me a thing about it I never did know a thing about it. And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes They won't go away. And the times that I've tried are the times That I find they don't show today. But you make me feel so good. I woke up after four still Iying on the floor Waiting to be carried away I woke up once again a little after ten Will things be any better today? It doesn't change you see It only changes me. Will someone try to tell me I'm sure? I'm gonna hear a voice and know it isn't in a dream I'm gonna read the lines again and look between I never knew the way that it ought to have been They never told me a thing about it I never did know a thing about it. And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes . . . But you make me feel so good. I'm going baGk to school I'm gonna check the rules And see if I get carried away. I'm going back again I'm gonna try again Don't listen what the people might say. It doesn't change a thing Not any single thing When someone tried to tell me for sure. I'm gonna hear a voice and know it isn't in a dream . . And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes . . . But you make me feel so good. I'm gonna hear a voice and know it isn't in a dream . . And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes . . . And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes . . .
