"Long Time Lie" lyrics
"Long Time Lie"
It's been a while since you did something
Not so long since you complained
You sit around here doing nothing
Every day
You're the coward who points the finger
I understand that I'm helping you
You have delusions in some spaced-out fantasy
That's what you do
He loves to wallow in the glory
Loves to cut you down to size
Try to make you believe in all of his lies
It's been a long long long long long long time
It's been a long long long long long long time
A long time lie
Don't you ever look in the mirror
Don't you know there's so much more
Locked up inside that box behind your door
All your twisted conversations
When you're sitting all alone
Just remember we know your secret
While you moan
He loves to wallow in the glory
Loves to cut you down to size
Try to make you believe in all of his lies
It's been a long long long long long long time
It's been a long long long long long long time
A long time lie
Thanks to petula pylyser for correcting these lyrics.

Editors - "Honesty" Don't you want me to stay?
Make a rocking horse getaway
The radio says we're in for a fall
The TV says nothin' at all
Nothin' at all
Nothin' at all
Out of my window, it echoes my heart
I've been...
Garbage - "Sugar" Give me sugar
Give me something sweet
I've spent a lifetime
Feeling incomplete
If I sound bitter
Or if I've come too late
Please reconsider
I don't need much on my plate
Just give me sugar
Don't...
White Lies - "Big TV" Slow
I'm gonna settle down slow
Down to the hum of electric life and soul
Faith
In my hands to trade
But for the word and
The light of a bitter saint
And you can get me work?
But I can't work for...
