The Charm Offensive

Senses oh how could you fail us nowCheck your heart still makes a hissing soundIt's just another name for sorceryWe still believe in what we never seeOur perception is but a camera trickAuthority a uniformAnother name for a second chanceYou offer moreThe sophomore.Gold mouth at full voice refuse this should be our choiceWe take this lying down, take this lyingAnd it burns, it burns us all outAs it blowsEveryone into position.We love to lie and pretend that it's okWe love to save all these words til another daySo don't think on your feet, cos you sink from your feet up.Are you flirting with me?Charm offensive, perma-pensiveDream it all awaySome may kill you as you continueTo lie for us I pray.But I'm rooting for you, I'm rooting for everyone.They've sold us out again and thrown us in the fireThey say we're all the sameWell, yeah, but we're not liars
