verse 1: RIFF 1
Strike a pose in the foot of spotlight that you chose
Down the river, the roses and a pot of gold
Everybody they love you but what are you now
We just see what we want
verse 2: RIFF 1
Pictures lie
We both know so
Go on, smile for the world
Take the light that you stole
Don't know you anymore

Maybe if I had a telescope

Then I could see what my heart won't

Maybe if (maybe if)

A telescope (A telescope)

Cos these naked eyes
These naked eyes
Have gone blind
verse 3: RIFF 1
And I thought I had smoked all of you out
But your walls and mirrors hit for more than I found
I'm ashamed to still want you cos who are you now
Don't know you anymore
verse 4: RIFF 1
Scriptures lie
We both know and
From where I have been hanging I can't see a thing
From the gallows I sing
