lyrics

We're busted up, we're paralyzed
A product of our own delusions
Objective love, subjective lives
We're blinded by our own solutions
Hey, yeah

Hey, yeah

The challenge of the modern mind
Constructed under high exposure
Push come to shove, the hungry eyes
Could take us to a violent closure
Hey, yeah

'Cause there's a lie in every truth
And there's a time when we should renew
All the guides that keep us confused
And I just want to be there when the lies start crumbling
Hey, yeah

Hey, yeah

Obstructed hearts, abducted minds
Complacent as we all get older
And we don't take our own advice
Won't change until we boil right over
Hey, yeah

'Cause there's a lie in every truth
And there's a time when we should renew
All the guides that keep us confused
And I just want to be there when the lies start crumbling

When our lifestyles have taken a hold
We can't even breathe anymore
It's a lifetime addiction to all
We don't really need any of
We've been blindsided, left in the cold
We don't even sleep anymore

We're busted up, we're paralyzed
A product of our own delusions
Objective love, subjective lives
We're blinded by our own solutions

When our lifestyles have taken a hold
We can't even breathe anymore
It's a lifetime addiction to all
We don't really need any of
We've been blindsided, left in the cold
We don't even sleep anymore

'Cause there's a lie in every truth

Yeah, there's a lie in every truth

There's a lie in every truth

And I just want to be there when the lies start crumbling
Hey, yeah

(The lies start crumbling)
Hey, yeah
(The lies start crumbling)
Hey, yeah
(The lies start crumbling)
Hey, yeah
(The lies start crumbling)
Hey, yeah
