You never really know her or what she says.

Sally moves from place to place.
You never really know her that's what she says.
Because perfection has it's own ways,
Cause perfection never ever stays.
You've never really told her just what you want.
You let the reasons fly above your head
Well she hides her problems under the bed.
Let's go out, show me directions
Don't you hide your intentions
I look out to the rainbow
Just stop pulling my elbow
I know you're just inventing
that's why, that's why i'm faking
I know, I see it in you
That's why, that's why I continue
We're these lies, we're these lies.
Running together, moving like the flies.
We're these lies, we're these lies.
Running together, moving like the flies.
I know all this is boring,
I know you're just ignoring.
