lyrics

I just arrived in a place I don’t recognize
Friends are enemies are friends
I’m beguiled, seduced, fluffed, and primed
Colored a willow that just bends

But I will not go quiet
All rise up and riot

Once Upon A Lie
Who vets the proctor? Watches the watcher?
Once Upon A Lie
Once Upon A Lie
Nothing shocks us inside the killbox
Once Upon A Lie

A blind eye. Reality synthesized
Deal with the devil. Acquiesce.
Compromise every precept faith implies.
Colored a willow that just bends

God-sent or design?
Grifter or divine?

Once Upon A Lie
Who vets the proctor? Watches the watcher?
Once Upon A Lie
Once Upon A Lie
Nothing shocks us inside the killbox
Once Upon A Lie

Questions that can’t be answered? Myth.
Answers that can’t be questioned?

I’m onto your jive
Cons breed your demise

Once Upon A Lie
Who vets the proctor? Watches the watcher?
Once Upon A Lie
Once Upon A Lie
Nothing shocks us inside the killbox
Once Upon A Lie
Once Upon A Lie
Nothing shocks us inside the killbox
Once Upon A Lie
