"The Lie Becomes The Self" lyrics

"The Lie Becomes The Self"

I saw you watching all the things you're not supposed to
I heard you're selling thoughts in which you don't believe
And in the back of my mind
You try to remain obscene
But I, I wasn't looking
I wasn't looking
The past just revealed its ugly self
So well

Don't get it twisted
Don't get it twisted
The lie becomes the self
Don't get it twisted
Don't get it twisted
The lie becomes the self
Outruns the self

There in the gutter's starlight
We find ourselves complete
That's why I can't resist it
You can't resist it
Those bloodied stains between the teeth
Fuck standing at the foot of your mirror
A clown's reflection
And I am revealed

Don't get it twisted
It's no existence
The lie becomes the self
Outruns the self

Hey, yeah
You've seen it as it is, it is, it is

What is it all about
What is it all about if I can't hear your laugh
If I can't hear you laughing?
What is it all about
What is it all about if I can't hear your laugh if I can't hear you?
