Denial Songtext
von Simon Townshend

I wanna tell the story of a man who thinks he′s really alright
Lives his life denying that there ever was a problem inside
Takes his poison meat and hides it underneath his pillow at night
Falls into his bed only when he's dead inside his head like last time

Oh, he′s a lonely one
And nobody cares 'til it's over
Oh, he′s the life and soul
Of his one man show until it implodes
He′s got to know his denial

It's a real dark secret
But everybody knows what′s going on
He'll try hard to keep it
But everybody knows it′s the same old song
Denial, he'll lie on
Denial, he′ll cry on


I'd like to read the poetry that once a certain lady put down
Before she met the evil one, she was the nicest little girl in town
Everybody loved her 'cause she genuinely cared and created
And now she′s lost her way, become the evil one, herself she hated

Oh, she′s the only one
Nobody cares that surrounds her
Oh, she's the life and soul
Of her merry-go-round as it goes
She′s got to know her denial

It's a real dark secret
But everybody knows what′s going on
And the hand that feeds it
Hides behind a cover and we all hold on
Denial, she'll lie on
Denial, she′ll cry on

I wanna tell the story of a man who thinks he can't be employed
He lives inside the body of a body that is nearly destroyed

Denial, he'll lie on
Denial, he′ll cry on
Denial, he′ll lie on
Denial, he'll cry on
Denial
