Like the ticking clock
You will not stop
You will not yield
You will not drop
Time and again
There is no end
You try it on
But I can't pretend
Like an infection
Avoiding correction
There is no change
Just changed direction
Yes, like a disease
No cure can appease
No one can watch
But everyone sees
I can't hear you
It's always the same
It's always the same
When is the time that you will not lie to me
Never lie to me, never lie to me
I can't feel you
Things will never change
Things will never change
When is the time to call in the cavalry
It's for you not me, you not me
Further to fool
Deceit is your fuel
Smile on your face
Outlook so cool
Mirrors and smoke
Stories and jokes
They keep you alive
But just make me choke
The cackling clown
He just won't drown
Hands round his neck
But he won't go down
Misspent career
So insincere
You open your mouth
But I must shut my ears
I can't hear you
I can't hear
It's always the same
It's always the same
When is the time that you will not lie to me
Never lie to me, never lie to me
I can't feel you
Things will never change
No they'll never change
When is the time to call in the cavalry
It's for you not me, you not me
you not me
you not me
Don't you lie
Don't you lie
When your lips open
Your secrets your lies
They come out like flies
Your secrets are lies
Your secrets your lies
They come out like flies
Your secrets and your lies
They come out like flies
Your secrets your lies
They come out like flies
Your secrets your lies
They come out like flies
Don't you lie
