Becoming the Lie Songtext
von Selfmachine

If wisdom comes with age
Then nostalgia is explained
Back when ignorance was blissful
Before all my plans derailed
All the goals I held so dear
They say life gets in the way
Guess tomorrow′s nothing special
Tomorrow's just a day

And all my vows, I′ve broken once or twice
The truth be told, with a little white lies

The convictions that I had
I have surely placed in doubt
If I still had any values
Then I would sell them out
All the best days I might fail
Like the man I wanted to be
The rest of them I settled in mediocrity


Oh, childish dreams, so foolish to believe
Society kills the desire to achieve

Can I let my passion truly die
That at last I will become the lie?
Intervene and all control denied
Finally I have become the lie

Let God reach for
Let God reach for
Let God reach for
Oh, restrain it, demote it
Now your core is corroded
Let God reach for
Oh, restrain it, demote it
Now just crawl over and die

Can I let my passion truly die
That at last I will become the lie?
Intervene and all control denied
Finally I have become the lie
