Don't Lie to Me

Lyrics

Why can't you just tell me the truth?
 Hard to believe the things you say
 Why can't you feel the tears I cry today?
 Cry today, cry today
 How do you win if we all lose?
 You change the facts to justify
 Your lips move but your words get in the way
 In the way, in the way
 Kings and queens, crooks and thieves
 You don't see the forest for the trees
 Head and heart, on our knees
 You can't see what we all see
 How do you sleep when the world keeps turning?
 All that we built has come undone
 How do you sleep when the world is burning?
 Everyone answers to someone
 Don't lie to me, don't lie to me, you lie to me
 Don't lie to me, don't lie to me, you lie to me
 You can build towers of bronze and gold
 You can paint castles in the sky
 You can use smoke and mirrors, old clichés
 Not today, not today
 Kings and queens, crooks and thieves
 You don't see the forest for the trees
 Hand on heart, down on knees
 You can't see what everyone sees
 How do you sleep when the world keeps turning?
 All that we built has come undone
 How do you sleep when the world is burning?
 Everyone answers to someone
 Don't lie to me, don't lie to me, you lie to me
 Don't lie to me, don't lie to me, you lie to me
 Can't you see I'm crying?
 Can't you see we're crying?
 Where's the new horizon?
 Where's the new horizon?
 How do you sleep?
 How do you sleep?
 How do you sleep?
 How do you sleep when the world keeps turning?
 All that we built has come undone
 Enough is enough
 How do you sleep when the world is burning?
 Everyone answers to someone
 Don't lie to me, don't lie to me, you lie to me
 Don't lie to me, don't lie to me, you lie to me
 Can't you see I'm crying?
 Can't you see we're crying?
 Everyone answers to someone
