Everybody Lies

(album: All Is Vanity - 2017)

Everybody lies sometimes
Nothing in the world's as it seems on the outside
Just when you think you got something real
Still you know
Everybody lies sometimes

We all got friends we think we can trust
Tell them all the secrets kept inside us
You wake up and find a knife in your back
Be careful what you think
It's better not to blink
We all want to believe in the perfect person
Reality don't care about that

We always wanna cast the blame
Always waiting for the world to change
Maybe we should start with ourselves

Everybody lies sometimes
Nothing in the world's as it seems on the outside
Just when you think you got something real
Still you know
Everybody lies sometimes

We build our walls up and close ourselves off
And do we really like what we become?
Will we hide our hearts in a masquerade?
I don't wanna look in the mirror one day
And not even recognize my own face
Why gain the world, if I lose myself?

We always wanna cast the blame
Always waiting for the world to change
Maybe we should start with ourselves

Oh just stop
Take a look around you
You got one chance to get it right
Don't be afraid
To take a couple chances now
Cause everybody lies
Ohh yeah
Yeah-yea-eah

Cause everybody lies sometimes
Nothing in the world's as it seems on the outside
Just when you think you got something real
Just take a look
Everybody lies sometimes

You are an extremely unique and individual person
And I'm telling you, don't let those invalid opinions of others
Just bring you to the pits, okay?
You're strong, so own it
Love, me
