Original Lies

from The Curtain Falls by Tekla Waterfield

/

lyrics

Daily we await your choice of words
Fists of steel black and blue
Employed by the serpent
Revile and belittle
The more we shrink
The bigger, and bigger, and bigger
Your authority grows
Tall tall giant
Little boys and
Little girls

Original lies
Original lies
Original lies
Original lies

We're all human in the eyes of God
I pray you laugh I, pray you cry
Why don't you step into the garden
Where the green grass grows
Release your heavy burden
Let the water of life, flow
Just let it flow

Original lies
Original lies
Original lies
Original lies

Something's not right
The sun on my shoulder
It fades to night
And we're pushing boulders
With all of our might
And we're gettin' older gettin' older gettin' older
Original lies we made tonight
I'll cave tonight
Maybe I
Can't run and hide
