Everything Is a Lie Except Death

(Intro)

Everything is a lie, just a lie

Everything is a lie except death

You stay away, just stay away

From this heart that lost its breath

(Verse 1)

Green river flows with old boyhood dreams,

I swore to the stars, I’d never let go of these seams.

No one else would find a home in my soul,

But now shadows linger, and I'm losing control.

(Chorus)

Everything is a lie, just a lie

Everything is a lie except death

You stay away, just stay away

From this heart that lost its breath

(Verse 2)

I wasn’t there when they whispered your name,

They say they saw you wrapped in someone else’s flame.

But I know the truth, it cuts like a knife,

Those empty words don’t hold a candle to my life.

(Chorus)

Everything is a lie, just a lie

Everything is a lie except death

You stay away, just stay away

From this heart that lost its breath

(Bridge)

What goes around us in a circle tight,

Promises broken, fading in the night.

Love turns to ashes, where once it had shone,

Everything crumbles, and I’m left all alone.

(Verse 3)

My hands, my everything, bloomed because of her,

My eyes shined bright, like a diamond's blur.

But now they’re tired, they’ve seen too much pain,

In a world full of liars, trust is just rain.

(Chorus)

Everything is a lie, just a lie

Everything is a lie except death

You stay away, just stay away

From this heart that lost its breath

(Outro)

Everything is a lie, just a lie

Everything is a lie except death

You stay away, just stay away

Stay away, stay away, from this heart that lost its breath.

Everything is a lie, just a lie.

Everything is a lie except death.
