Did I take the fun away?
Now you sit on the sidelines kick
ing at the clay and say
Man, it's a dreadful day
And the sky's like an iron
fist coming down in grey
Oh, can you remember me?
You were the one trying to get it for free,
you see
Well, that's how it used to be
But you've been kicked
around some
And now you're bleeding on your knee
Now you're the one with that
far away look in your eye s
The truth weighs a ton
Don't you let it crush you
back down to size
This is the end result of
so many little lies
How did it go so wrong,
standing in a place where you don't belong?
Be strong, I feel it won't be too long
When it dawns on you it sound
s just like a gong
Now you're the one
With that far away look in your eye s
The truth weighs a ton
Don't you let it crush you
back down to size
This is the end result
Of so many little lies
I know it feels pretty strange,
predestined and prearranged, this change, it's colored
And now your hands are in your pockets
and you're walking around town in the rain
Now you're the one with that
far away look in your eye s
The truth weighs a ton,
don't you let it crush you back down to size
Don't you act so damn surprised
This is the end result
Of so many little lies
You
