Iris DeMent - String of lies

Tekst :

I ve got no politics no influential friend or two
I ve got ideas but it s nothing I picked up at school
I might be running but I m never running back to you

And here s a letter from the real world I don t expect you ll
reply
And anything you re gonna tell me it s just another lie

I had to wait so long that weeks and months that passed me by
You ve got no power and my situation don t apply
You ask me how I am I lie and say I m doing fine

And with your sugar sweetened alibi there was a truth I never
knew
And all the attitude you gave me it s coming back to you

String of lies it s always compromise with you
String of lies you know there s nothing left to do
String of lies it s been a string of lies with you

And here s a letter from the real world I don t expect your
reply
And anything you re gonna tell me it s just another lie

String of lies we always compromise for you
String of lies you know there s nothing left to do
String of lies it s been a string of lies with you
String of lies we always compromise for you
And here s a letter from the real world

  • Wasteland of the free
  • Slaughterhouse
  • Long way down
  • Slide
  • On your side
  • No way out
  • Wildwood flower
  • Down on the corner
  • Burning up
  • Naked
  • So outta line
  • Break my mind
  • Smash
  • We are the normal

    Gotta be

    You will always hide emotions
    But you ll never hide your face
    To someone who don t look like me
    You believe in love and in mermaids

    Gotta be free if you wanna be
    When your eyes don t say what they see

    Like an angel

    Angel...Angel...Angel...
    Angel...Angel...

    Like an angel...angel...angel...
    Like an angel...angel

    We had a lot of fun, we made love beneath the sun
    Somehow you completed me, life went so easily
    I cannot close my eyes, need to cry
    I can t forget our sad goodbye
    And every night I am asking why
    But I know love never dies

    Chorus:
    Like an angel, you...

    Sympathy

    Stranger than your sympathy
    And this is my apology
    I killed myself from the inside out
    And all my fears have pushed you out

    And I wished for things that I don t need
    (All I wanted)
    And what I chased won t set me free
    (All I wanted)

    Emphasis (deutsche)

    Das Spiel ist vorbei, die Zeit hat das Leben gelehrt
    Öffne deine Augen und umarme unser sogenanntes Paradies
    All die Ideen und Gedanken,
    Finde einen Weg um sie dein zu machen
    Das Rätsel einer Ursache

    Wie kann das Leben so sein wie du es...

    When you put it like that

    It s been a long week
    And I ve had a lot of time to think about you
    So sure that I m right
    In thinking I ll be more than fine without you
    Here you are with your guilty grin
    Knocking at my door again
    We both know you re gonna win
    When I m in...
