phony

They say flowers fade

And their beauty can't be weighed with flowers so fake

It's all because the way things are made, live on lies that fabricate

Antipathy world

I'll raise, right away, my umbrella that will shade my body from rain

Now dampened by the pain, can't escape, here my bangs and heart remain

All the trouble I face

Before I knew, it withers way too soon, that one word that rings true

And now, a fruit will bloom in my heart, I can't move

Within the mirror's sight, there's a painting inside

A sign of "makeup" lighting the loss in my life

Pa-rap-pa-ra-pa-pa-ra-pa-pa-pa

Let's play this game where we count the riddles that we made

Tar-ra-ta-ra-tat-ta-ta-ta-ta

Why stay, why stay in this place and dance the night away?

I just can't see these simple things I can't keep

What am I supposed to be?

Shaken by the hand of night, it seems, stirring in a dream

Like your love for me (it's leaving, it's leaving)

I would cry and weep without a "bye" as I grieve

Phony, phony, phony

Still tangled up in lies, I see I'm just a fake, phony

Antipathy world

Before I knew, the sky, so very blue, joined an ugly old tune

My colored view of you breaks away what you do

Within the mirror's sight, there, I'm missing inside

There lies a "fake" that's hiding the truth they can't find

I say, why live and stay

Where everybody craves that thing known as love

That will only bring us pain?

I play and swim today as I am left behind in every way by the train

So dance the night away and

Pa-pa-ra-pa-pa-ra-rap-pap-pa

We meant pretense as we sang with riddles in the end

Ta-rat-ta-ta-tat-ta-ta-ra-ta-ta

Why then, why then does it hurt so much right here again?

I just can't change the days I only feel pain

I can't escape this wave of limitless rain

I would cry and weep without a "bye" as I grieve

Phony, phony, phony

Still tangled up in lies, I see you leave

I just can't see the simple things I can't keep

What am I supposed to be?

Shaken by the hand of night, it seems, stirring in a dream

Like your love for me (it's leaving, it's leaving)

I will sigh and breathe a little "bye" as I grieve

Phony, phony, phony

Still tangled up in lies, I see I'm just a fake, phony

Just flowers that deceive, they keep this secret, fake, phony
