Love Lies

(album: The Way We Rust - 2017)

I took the drink, let it slip down my throat
I guess I've been known for worse than simply losing control
But it's the symptoms like these... Well, it's the burn in my soul
That leaves me broken, distraught, and alone

If this is love, then give it to me
If this is love
If this is love
Is this the gift I've been waiting to see?

Burn out the sun. Black out the light
Break all the mirrors, we won't like what we find
Cast my image. Shatter it

Burn out the sun. Black out the light
Break all the mirrors, we won't like what we find
Cast my image. Shatter it

If this is love
(If this is love, then give it to me)
Is this the gift I've been waiting to see?

Burn out the sun. Black out the light
Break all the mirrors, we won't like what we find
Cast my image. Shatter it

Burn out the sun. Black out the light
Break all the mirrors, we won't like what we find
Cast my image. Shatter it
Burn out the sun. Black out the light
Break all the mirrors, we won't like what we find
Cast my image. Shatter it

Well I thought I'd take a moment here to rant
And when I say "rant", I mean repetitively mumble
Over my infatuation with my own self-inflicted disease
Oh, and the way you treat me

Love lies
It sounds a lot like love lies
It sounds a lot like love lies
You lie
We lie
Love lies
But we can't do better

Burn out the sun. Black out the light
Break all the mirrors, we won't like what we find
Cast my image. Shatter it
Burn out the sun. Black out the light
Break all the mirrors, we won't like what we find
Cast my image. Shatter it
