Dirty Lies - Bess Rogers

You know those sayings meant to break your fall?

«it's better to love and to lose» and so on and so on

I think i’ve heard them too many times

Cause they don’t change nothing

They don’t ease my mind

So shut your mouth and open your eyes

They’re just dirty lies your mother tells you to make the pain subside

Dirty lies you hold onto like a lover in the night

Dirty lies you can call it wisdom, i call it denial

So keep, just keep your dirty lies

My pocket’s empty but you say my heart’s full

Well i need something my five fingers can hold

And maybe time will heal all my wounds

But i’m sick of waiting to see if it’s true

So try your best i will not be fooled

They’re just dirty lies your mother tells you to make the pain subside

Dirty lies you hold onto like a lover in the night

Dirty lies you can call it wisdom, i call it denial

So keep, just keep your dirty lies
