Civil Lies - Dave Hause

Civilized my disguise

Twisted mask you wear to hide from

Sideways eyes and your crooked frown

Your crooked frown

Cynics grind, clouds my mind

A tiny thorn in my side and it’s digging in

A little slip in the spine and it’s bringing me down

Bringing me down

It’s a tick, tick, ticking time bomb

Of being sick, sick, sick in your mind

Not a kid anymore

How could I be so bloodthirsty?

How could I be so bloodthirsty and kind at the same time?

At the same time?

Great divide, I got a ticket to ride

A little dose of escape pod capsules keep the tongue untied

It’s a tick, tick, ticking time bomb

Of being sick, sick, sick in your mind

Not a kid anymore

How could I be so bloodthirsty?

How could I be so bloodthirsty and kind at the same time?

At the same time?

How could there be this war in me?

How could there be this warfare in my mind?

Bloodthirsty and kind at the same time

Civilized my disguise

A little dose of escape pod capsules keep the tongue untied

How could I be so bloodthirsty?

How could I be so bloodthirsty and kind at the same time?

At the same time?

How could there be this war in me?

How could there be this warfare in my mind?

Bloodthirsty and kind at the same time

At the same time, at the same time
