Paroles de It's A Wonderful Lie

Get up from a dream
and I look for rain
Take an amphetamine
and a crushed rat's brain
How am I feelin'
Better I suppose
How am I lookin'
I don't want the truth
What am I doin'
I ain't in my youth
I'm past my prime
Or was that just a pose
It a wonderful lie
and I still get by on those

I've been accused of never opening up
You get too close
Then I keep my mouth shut
I'm gonna run to the wind
Where the big bad city blows
It a wonderful lie
and I still get by on those
It a wonderful lie
and I still get by on those

You can dress to the eights Not near enough clothes
It a wonderful lie
and I still get by on those
It a wonderful lie
and I still get by on those

So don't pin your hopes
Or pin your dreams
To misanthropes or guys like me
The truth is overrated
I suppose
It a wonderful lie
and I still get by on those
It a wonderful lie
and I still get by...
