lyrics

There’s a fever growing in my stomach
There are questions I’ve tried to ignore
Though I bite them down they always come back
And now they're knocking at my door


I wish your lies were better my dear
Your secrets further from view
I wish your lies were better my dear
And I could ignore the truth

Doubt it grows in silence like a cancer
Questions held too long held will start to burn
Anger moves within you like a dancer
And eats at the truths you held firm

I wish your lies were better my dear
Your secrets further from view
I wish your lies were better my dear
And I could ignore the truth

Over and over i’ve turned your words
They can’t hide what i see

Where’ve you been tonight my only darling
And what are you doing to me
