lyrics

House Of LIes

With so much death in the world today,
what's a thousand lives, give or take.
So we'll load our guns, and we'll fire away
And we'll save our pity for another day.

I'll write a book of lies and give away the best punchline
in the beginning. They'll never see it coming at all.

With so much life in the world today,
no one will miss me anyway.
So call my ma and say the same
When her ailing heart won't take the strain.

We'll build a house of lies
And we can move all move inside
It will be better than having to remember
that once upon a time in a middle school lunch line
Me and my quarters, panic and disorder around
I was lost at sea with a hundred kids just like me
Who had the feeling mama couldn't explain it at all.

At all
(You gotta relate, I gotta relate it's like a shotgun by the bed)
At all
(You gotta relate, I gotta relate it's like a nightlight by my head)
At all
