Lift

Bury The Lead

Lift


I'm exposed to you like acid rain
Buried under all your nuclear waste
Sun's in shadows
Grass still won't grow
Clouds glow green tonight

What's the problem? Did your promise leak?
Is it hollow, or maybe just too weak?
Hope the crow flies
Through your disguise
Straight toward obvious
It's so wrong
So right

The scale's off balance in my mind
If I were you
And you were me
Would I lie to you like you bury the lead?
Trust the forecast, shows some warming signs
Or those dry gulch pirates might reorganize

Makes me wonder
Who'll feed thunder
When lightning calls a strike?
It's so wrong
So right

The scale's off balance in my mind
If I were you
And you were me
Would I lie to you like you bury the lead?
Reassurance throw me out more line
Make ugly shiny and I'll bite every time
It's so wrong
So right

The scale's off balance in my mind
If I were you
And you were me
Would I lie to you like you bury the lead?
Bury the lead
