It ain't kind and it ain't right
But when you wore away the shine, what did you find?
Still you would say you're not afraid
To lay down your bones on the bed you've made

Someone made a sound, it turned you right around
It wasn't cold enough to care, but brother I dared

See, it tear you up
And it calls your bluff
When the lie that keeps you warm
Is the truth you're counting on

There's a shadow in the sun
And it crawls along the path from whence you've come
It's not as clear as you had planned
Feel the sun go down, turn and make your stand

Trying to account for the troubles you've found
Hey, could you use a little help to be honest with yourself?

See, it tear you up
And it calls your bluff
When the lie that keeps you warm
Is the truth you're counting on

Up in the clouds, up in the clouds
Tell me, sister, are you coming down?

There's a lie in every town, oh, sister rock (?)
And every word and every sound oh, sister rock (?)

See, it tear you up
And it calls your bluff
When the lie that keeps you warm
Is the truth you're counting on
