Worth As Much As A Counterfeit Dollar

FIRST VERSE
You've told another lie this time,
you stood up but your legs aren't moving again
It's your call but it better be the last try
You hold ransom for tuition that ive already spent
So give it up, give it up, it's time,
they're auditioning new roles hoping we dont catch em pulling our legs
dont go the audience from last night, spread the word and the new crowd's showing up
CHORUS
Throw the dirt and leave the path feet covered up so we dont know your there
hold your breath until your heart stops beating so fast
Your giving orders from the back seat while the passengers are all unaware
hold your breath until your heart stops beating so fast
SECOND VERSE
Once more, the story of your whole life,
for you its all just a game but the game never ends,
your hiding in the closet while your one night stands waiting with his eyes closed counting to ten
now gather around, gather around, hats off, while they're tossing in their quarters might as well give all the people a show
dont cry im not so good at good byes
your moving on at the same pace im giving up
BRIDGE
now its all gonna unwind, hurry up before the sun goes down
its past 4 oclock my time, you'll come around now your coming around.
and they'll all be fighting for their own rights,
and they'll all be delighted just to know we're alive
you've told another lie this time,
your stood up but your legs arent moving again
