The Charm Offensive

Senses oh how could you fail us now Check your heart still makes a hissing sound It's just another name for sorcery We still believe in what we never see Our perception is but a camera trick Authority a uniform Another name for a second chance You offer more The sophomore. Gold mouth at full voice refuse this should be our choice We take this lying down, take this lying And it burns, it burns us all out As it blows Everyone into position. We love to lie and pretend that it's ok We love to save all these words til another day So don't think on your feet, 'cause you sink from your feet up. Are you flirting with me? Charm offensive, perma-pensive Dream it all away Some may kill you as you continue To lie for us I pray. But I'm rooting for you, I'm rooting for everyone. They've sold us out again and thrown us in the fire They say we're all the same Well, yeah, but we're not liars.
