Lies

I had another drink after another drink
and then I tried to crawl to the door.
I had another smoke after another joke
and then I couldn't take any more.
It didn't change a thing,
not any single thing
when someone tried to tell me for sure.
I heard another voice that
said I wasn't in a dream.
I read a word or two about ev'rything.
I never knew the way that it
oughta to have been
They never told me a thing about it.
I never did know a thing about it.
And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes
they won't go away.
And the times that I've tried are the times
that I find they don't show today.
But you make me feel so good.
I woke up after four still lying on the floor
waiting to be carried away
I woke up once again a little after ten,
will things be any better today?
It doesn't change you see,
it only changes me.
Will someone try to tell me I'm sure?
I'm gonna hear a voice and
know it isn't in a dream.
I'm gonna read the lines
again and look between.
I never knew the way that it
oughta to have been.
They never told me a thing about it.
I never did know a thing about it.
And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes
. . .
But you make me feel so good.
I'm going back to school,
I'm gonna check the rule,
and see if I get carried away.
I'm going back again,
I'm gonna try again,
don't listen what the people might say.
It doesn't change a thing,
not any single thing
when someone tried to tell me for sure.
I'm gonna hear a voice and
know it isn't in a dream
. .
And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes
. . .
But you make me feel so good.
I'm gonna hear a voice and
know it isn't in a dream
. .
And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes
. . .
And the lies in the eyes of a thousand eyes
