Lyrics for Long Time Lie

It's been a while since you did something Not so long since you complained You sit around here doing nothing Every day You're the coward who points the finger I understand that I'm helping you You have delusions in some space-out fantasy That's what you do He loves to wallow in the glory Loves to cut you down to size Try to make you believe in all of his lies It's been a long long long long long long time It's been a long long long long long long time A long time lie Don't you ever look in the mirror Don't you know there's so much more Locked up inside that box behind your door All your twisted conversations When you're sitting all alone Just remember we know your secret While you moan He loves to wallow in the glory Loves to cut you down to size Try to make you believe in all his lies It's been a long long long long long long time It's been a long long long long long long time A long time lie
