And these lies are in bed with us

[luxvalence]

I tried hard to posses
What I could not understand
I closed my mind and take a guess
I found your heartbeat in my hand

Now these lies - bigger than the both of us
These lies - comin' right between us
I'm gonna turn and walk away
From your empty arms and your eyes filled with lies

Dead end lies, dead end lies x2
Dead end lies x4

I tried hard to ingest
Lies like pudding full of sand
I held on hard just to impress
and dropped your heartbeat from my hand

And these lies are in bed with us
These lies hover over watchin' us
Take a shower and scrub away
The residue of our lives and the drain is clogged with lies

Dead end lies, dead end lies x2
Dead end lies x4

Yes they are, Yes they are, dead end lies
Yes they are
They're only lies x7

Not to be confused with Chris Ballew's Dead End Lies by his incarnation as Caspar - which has slightly different lyrics and with more verses. 'Course this is the web demo version. I hope it will someday make a PUSA album.

P.S. It's always a bad idea to bring lies to bed with you.
