lyrics
It's a lie
But everybody tells it
Right before the ship goes down
“We'll be fine”
But you're spitting out the water
And everybody knows you're gonna drown
I wish you'd tell me the truth
Cause I don't believe a word
I wish you'd tell me the truth
Cause you know I don't believe you so
Shut up, shut up
Cause things are always falling apart
Shut up, shut up
Cause things are always falling apart
I can't believe we'll be fine, we'll be alright
If the opposite appears to be true
Shut up, shut up
Cause things are always falling apart
It' a lie
But everybody tells it
Right before the bomb goes off
“There's still time”
But you've cut the green wire
And it doesn't look like it's gonna stop
I wish you'd tell me the truth
Cause I don't believe a word
I wish you'd tell me the truth
Cause you know I don't believe you so
Shut up, shut up
Cause things are always falling apart
Shut up, shut up
Cause things are always falling apart
I can't believe we'll be fine, we'll be alright
If the opposite appears to be true
Shut up, shut up
Cause things are always falling apart
No one tells you when things aren't looking good
No one tells you even though they swore they would
No one tells you when everything's gone to hell
No one says a thing as if you couldn't tell
I wish you'd tell me the truth
Cause I don't believe a word
I wish you'd tell me the truth
Cause you know I don't believe you so
Shut up, shut up
Cause things are always falling apart
Shut up, shut up
Cause things are always falling apart
I can't believe we'll be fine, we'll be alright
If the opposite appears to be true
Shut up, shut up
Cause things are always falling apart
But everybody tells it
Right before the ship goes down
“We'll be fine”
But you're spitting out the water
And everybody knows you're gonna drown
I wish you'd tell me the truth
Cause I don't believe a word
I wish you'd tell me the truth
Cause you know I don't believe you so
Shut up, shut up
Cause things are always falling apart
Shut up, shut up
Cause things are always falling apart
I can't believe we'll be fine, we'll be alright
If the opposite appears to be true
Shut up, shut up
Cause things are always falling apart
It' a lie
But everybody tells it
Right before the bomb goes off
“There's still time”
But you've cut the green wire
And it doesn't look like it's gonna stop
I wish you'd tell me the truth
Cause I don't believe a word
I wish you'd tell me the truth
Cause you know I don't believe you so
Shut up, shut up
Cause things are always falling apart
Shut up, shut up
Cause things are always falling apart
I can't believe we'll be fine, we'll be alright
If the opposite appears to be true
Shut up, shut up
Cause things are always falling apart
No one tells you when things aren't looking good
No one tells you even though they swore they would
No one tells you when everything's gone to hell
No one says a thing as if you couldn't tell
I wish you'd tell me the truth
Cause I don't believe a word
I wish you'd tell me the truth
Cause you know I don't believe you so
Shut up, shut up
Cause things are always falling apart
Shut up, shut up
Cause things are always falling apart
I can't believe we'll be fine, we'll be alright
If the opposite appears to be true
Shut up, shut up
Cause things are always falling apart
