lying through our teeth

starry eyed but not unaware

a poor soul to fool

dodging streetlights

late nights

all nights

chasing after you

you're all ears

but where are your eyes?

the kids won't rest to your surprise

you won't learn what you don't understand

slow them down but that's all

here we sit now lying through our teeth

in the middle of what appears to be

something sacred

we can hardly teach

and we just can't compete

we're the future

we are the cure

a morsel of fear

dodging streetlights

late nights

all nights

a product of you

here we sit now lying through our teeth

in the middle of what appears to be

something sacred

we can hardly teach

and we just can't compete
