"Beautiful Lies" lyrics

Yes, I think you heard my right the first time
The truth is for the privileged, not me
For those who won't be wounded by the knowing
For those whom knowledge only sets them free
But some of us are weakened by the daylight
Some of us are better in the dark
Swimming in the blissful state you found us
Ignorantly inches from the shark

Well, I don't really need to know the answer
When the question's like a hand grenade
Keeping me from pain is such a kindness
So when you've really nothing nice to say

Lie, lie-lie, lie, lie-lie, lie
Lie, lie-lie, lie, lie-lie, lie
Just tell me lie, lie-lie, lie, lie-lie, lies
Beautiful lie, lie-lie, lie, lie-lie, lies

Nothing's black and white on this horizon
Wrong and right are ghosts you never see
Everything gets framed before we see it
I won't be judging you if you don't judge me

If I ask you for some sweed deception
See it as a birthday gift my dear
Twenty-twenty perfect imperception
And you know what I really need to hear?

Lie, lie-lie, lie, lie-lie, lies
Lie, lie-lie, lie, lie-lie, lies
Just tell me lie, lie-lie, lie, lie-lie, lies
Beautiful lie, lie-lie, lie, lie-lie, lies

Just tell me lies
Sometimes the truth ain't on your side
If it's a search, you know I'm blind
It is kinder just to lie
The beautiful, beautiful lies
Beautiful lie, lie-lie, lies
(Lie, lie-lie, lie, lie-lie, lies)
(Lie, lie-lie, lie, lie-lie, lies)
(Lie, lie-lie, lie, lie-lie, lies)
(Lie, lie-lie, lie, lie-lie, lies)
(Lie, lie-lie, lie, lie-lie, lies)
(Lie, lie-lie, lie, lie-lie, lies)
(Lie, lie-lie, lie, lie-lie, lies)
(Lie, lie-lie, lie, lie-lie, lies)
