Your never mind is never ending
Ever ready answers on your lips
You bring new meaning to pretending
I'm waiting for the hangman's knot to slip
Don't know how you justify the fraud
Love like that should be against the law
Wipe that smile right of your face
You used up your saving grace
And I confess I've finally learned
Only so much soul will burn
Choke back all that sugar and spice
Make believe you're true to life
I know it now the joke's on me
You're a faker in the first degree
Something about this seems familiar
You made a career of living lies
And you're gonna find time the avenger
Will show the truth to your lying eyes
One by one the spinning plates slow down
You gave up the greasepaint for the crowd
