.
You can see yourself in the side mirror
Tossing your hair
If no one is there
Why do you care
Though I let you think there was no witness to
All of your crimes
I knew what you were:
A climber who climbs
.
I'm living a lie
You're living it too
Cause I live it with you
I'm living a lie
A lie I can't tell
So we wait for a crack in the shell
.
No one bears a grudge like a boy genius
Just past his prime
Gilding his cage
One bar at a time
For every open arm there's a cold shoulder
Waiting to turn
People to blame
Bridges to burn
.
I'm living a lie
You're living it too
Cause I live it with you
I'm living a lie
A lie I can't tell
So we wait for a crack in the shell
.
A girl comes around at a time when your ground
Is as shaky as leaves on a tree
Creating for you a persona or two
Or an out-and-out mythology
Now there's too many cooks but you like how it looks
When they're bowing and calling you
