Song lyrics

Hey god, why are you doing this to me
Am I not living up to what I'm supposed to be
Why am I seething with this animosity
Hey god, I think you owe me a great big apology

Terrible lie
(4x)

Hey god, I really don't know what you mean
Seems like salvation comes only in our dreams
I feel my hatred grow all the more extreme
Hey god, can this world really be as sad as it seems

Terrible lie
(4x)

Don't take it away from me
I need you to hold on to
(3 раза)
Don't take it away from me
I need someone to hold on to
Don't tear it away from me
I need you to hold on to
Don't tear it away from me
I need someone to hold on to
Don't tear it away from me
I need you to hold on to
Don't tear it
Don't tear it
Don't take
Don't take
Don't

Hey god, there's nothing left for me to hide
I lost my ignorance, security and pride
I'm all alone in a world you must despise
Hey god, I believed the promises, your promises and lies

Terrible lie
(5x)

You made me throw it all away
My morals left to decay
Terrible lie
How many you betray
You've taken everything
Terrible lie

My head is filled with disease
My skin is begging you please
Terrible lie
I'm on my hands and knees
I want so much to believe

I need someone to hold on to
(16x)
