daily liar

tell me

what's the news today

what is the state of play

i'm drowning

in a sea of words

no life boats on the way

direct me so

i can find

my way through

the obstacles ahead

cause i believe

all that you've said

daily liar

believe me

with no word of a lie

happiness is passing by

trust me

to be your guiding light

on this dark and evil night

direct me so

i can find

my way through

the obstacles ahead

cause i believe

all that you've said

daily liar

with skilful manipulation

joyriding in the bloody tracks

of a previous generation

i'm drowning in a raging sea of words

try to hold on

to a sentence here and there

to stop me going down

going down going down down down

and i say no no no no no

no no no no no

do i look like a kind of guy

who truly believes in the smoke and mirrors

no no no

so tell me

what's the news today

what is the state of play

and knowing

what's right and what is wrong

your hold on me is gone

now i know

i'm not at sea

there's a light

a beacon of hope for me

well take it all with a pinch of salt
