I see the children, relieved and they sigh Friday is here, they are going into town But you're not really going anywhere tonight It's just another chapter in the lie of life A stimulated businessman travels the world Meeting new cultures and hearing their words Having a good time but missing the light It's just another chapter in the lie of life It seems there is no choosing It must be a bad dream Everyone is losing A massive global scream I see women raising kids in the suburbs Doing the best they can in the smallest of worlds Trapped under the same yoke, that life is just a strife It's just another chapter in the lie of life I see the past, inventing in the lie of life I see the present, nursing the lie of life I see the future, becoming my lie of life
