LYRICS
Well, I told you ’bout this song, babe
And I know what you’re gonna say
I hope that you’ll understand one day
And remember what I told you
About you and your price
So don’t come and say that it’s my own device

In a world of lies you’re telling a story
To live and die, to earn the glory
In a world of lies, tell a story

You gotta face the truth
Are you afraid?
The world might not be your parade
Face the truth
Life is so easy for you if you just
Face the truth

You can fuck my brother and wink your eye
I still think you’re cheap
But everybody knows that you’ve sunk to deep
So, please don’t blame me for what I said
I don’t wanna be your enemy
I just wanna help you to see reality

In a world of lies you’re telling a story
To live and die, to earn the glory
In a world of lies, you’re gonna be sorry

You gotta face the truth
Are you afraid?
The world might not be your parade
Face the truth
Life is so easy for you if you just
Face the truth

Take a look inside your self, babe
You’ll find someone you don’t know
And he’ll show you the road, the road you’re gonna go
And he will say the same as I do
About the power and glory

Listen!
Comprehend!
Or sit alone with your story!

In a world of lies you’re telling a story
To live and die, to earn the glory
In a world of lies, you don’t have to worry!

You gotta face the truth
Are you afraid?
The world might not be your parade
Face the truth
Life is so easy for you if you just
Face the truth
