Distant Lies - Arco

Distant lies — calling you across the years

Their voices loud — kind of loudness no-one hears

Grown and twisted out of shape

They’re so hard to recognise

But still they point a gun at you

Make you be what you despise

Distant lies — shallow dreams, confused ideas

Once our hopes — now they anchor all our fears

Spend your lifetime if you will

Searching for the truth below

Years of doubt and years of pain

And you still may never know

Distant lies

Lies of faith, lies of fame

Distant lies

Lies of love, lies of shame
