Tellin’ Lies Songtext
von The Menzingers

Oh yeah, everything is terrible
When buying marijuana makes you feel like a criminal
When your new friends take a joke too literal, making you feel like the bad guy
Oh, where are we gonna go now that our twenties are over?
Oh yeah, all hope abandoned not young enough to be your companion
Not old enough to be your guide, what a cliche time to try
Oh, where are we gonna go now that our twenties are over?
Where are we gonna go now that our twenties are over?
Everyone's asking me over and over.
The decade taken hostage by my own guilty conscience
When you gonna quit this nonsense
Everyone's asking me over and over
But I don't mind tellin' lies.


So oh yeah, let's go to Vegas,
put it all on black and get married by Elvis
If we wake up broke we'll be fine,
we'll get rich in another lifetime.
Like tension you can cut with a knife
Like a wedding ring that never fit right
Like a car alarm that won't stop howling
A decade lost in the motions
To romance and cheap whiskey,
the subtle sound of a fleeting feeling
Like four chords that don't love you no more, in a motel room
In a sleeping bag on the floor,
Is it wrong to say that things can change?
