I used to pray everyday, wishing for a better way.
When nothing changed, I lost my faith,
Praying for a better day
Praying for a better day
Burn, liar
Burn, liar
Burn, liar
Burn, liar
Let's sew her fucking mouth shut!

All the lies you've said to me (you liar)
And everything you've led me to believe (is false)
Now it's time to re-live everything, everything that you put me through.

Coming home to addiction inside, it was always on my miserable mind.
Witnessing your addiction (through my eyes) it was always on my miserable mind.
Witnessing your addiction!
Your demons dancing right in front of my eyes
Witnessing your addiction!
Your demons dancing right in front of my eyes
It's time to burn liar, burn liar

Witnessing your addiction!
Your demons dancing right in front of my eyes
Your demons dancing right in front of my eyes

I used to wish I could fly, spread my wings and fly away.
I'd cross my fingers for a day, wishing for a better way.
So take my hands and take me away (burn, liar).
I'd close my eyes and even pray, wishing for a better day.

Coming home to addiction inside, it was always on my miserable mind.
Witnessing your addiction (through my eyes) inside your mind.
It was always on your fucking mind!
I used to pray every day, wishing,
Wishing for a better way, but nothing fucking changed.
When nothing changed, I lost my faith.
Praying, praying for a better day, everyday.

Witnessing your addiction!
Your demons dancing right in front of my eyes
Your demons dancing right in front of my eyes
My eyes
My eyes
My eyes

All the lies you've said to me (you liar)
And everything you've proven to believe (is false).
You always said you would be okay,
Well fuck tomorrow, live for today!

Witnessing your addiction!
Your demons dancing right in front of my eyes
Your demons dancing right in front of my eyes

I used to wish I could fly, spread my wings and fly away.
I'd cross my fingers for a day, wishing for a better way.
So take my hands and take me away (burn, liar).
I'd close my eyes and even pray, wishing for a better day.

(Burn, liar)
(Burn, liar)
(Burn, liar)
(Burn, liar)
I used to pray everyday, wishing for a better way.
When nothing changed, I lost my faith, praying for a better day.

    Pretty obvious shot at religion again. Love it. The song, specifically, I think speaks about his mother or a close relative/friend that exposed him to the lie of religion. He was tormented by the concept of faith, and he feels betrayed and lied to. He's "witnessing your (the "her" in the first part of the song) addiction" and her "demons dancing right in front of my eyes." He prays but nothing ever changes. He is frustrated with his life and he just wants it to get better.

    At least, that is my take. Great fucking album!
