Willy Mason - Gilded Lie Lyrics

oh no I’m verified
I’m on the books
they’ve got my number now
all the crooks
I’m terrified
what they might do
if I misspeak
or tell the truth
the loudest voice
the softest breath
the fear of life
the fear of death
not forever
this gilded lie
the earth will flex
the false will die
the truth will live
in every note
DNA to thunderbolt
the truth is love
the truth is life
the truth is sowing
paradise
oh mother
oh father
careful don’t
drink the water
oh brother
oh sister
be careful what
you believe
the things we’d do
to each other
I’m worried to discover
I hear it
I fear it
I’m giving all to liberty
I’m running
I’m falling
trying to hear the warning
I’m bleeding
I’m seething
feels like a match to Kerosene
you know it
you grow it
they’re selling
poison poets
I’m reaching
I’m seeking
those texts aren’t
fit for being free
candles in the sun
we are

oh no I’m verified
I’m on the books
they’ve got my number now
all the crooks
I’m terrified
what they might do
if I misspeak
or tell the truth
the loudest voice
the softest breath
the fear of life
the fear of death
not forever
this gilded lie
the earth will flex
the false will die
the truth will live
in every note
DNA to thunderbolt
the truth is love
the truth is life
the truth is sowing
paradise
oh mother
oh father
careful don’t
drink the water
oh brother
oh sister
be careful what
you believe
the things we’d do
to each other
I’m worried to discover
I hear it
I fear it
I’m giving all to liberty
I’m running
I’m falling
trying to hear the warning
I’m bleeding
I’m seething
feels like a match to Kerosene
you know it
you grow it
they’re selling
poison poets
I’m reaching
I’m seeking
those texts aren’t
fit for being free
candles in the sun
we are
