The Lies We're Sold

Verse 1

Plastic

Shiny gold

Mirror shows a stranger

Everything I own is hollow

Cold

Metal teeth

Biting on the fake grit

I don't belong here

Chorus

Give me something real to hold

I don't want the lies I'm sold

Tear it down

Tear it down

I don't want the lies I'm sold

I don't want the lies I'm sold

Post-Chorus

No no no

Break it

No no no

Fake it

Verse 2

Stained

Paper skin

Blood is thin and green

Mother said to pray for credit

Pay

Wait

Earn a seat at tables

Rotten wood and silver plates

Greed

Growing like a garden weed

I can't breathe in this dirt

Chorus

Give me something real to hold

I don't want the lies I'm sold

Tear it down

Tear it down

I don't want the lies I'm sold

I don't want the lies I'm sold

Post-Chorus

No no no

Break it

No no no

Fake it

Bridge

Maybe I'm the glitch

Maybe I'm the ghost

Maybe I'm the guest

Who won't leave the party

I see the cracks

I see the paint

I see the rot

Underneath the coat of gloss

I see it all

I see it all

Chorus

Give me something real to hold

I don't want the lies I'm sold

Tear it down

Tear it down

I don't want the lies I'm sold

I don't want the lies I'm sold

Outro

Where do I go

Where do I go

Burn the map

Burn the map

Start again

Start again

Nothing left

Nothing left
