Denial

One day when I walk in
To find a butterfly
Screaming in an empty room
This man shouts sky
My heart's beating faster
Think I'll read my book
The faster we go, the less we know
A book sure sounds good

Denial
Denial
Seems like the faster we go, the less we see
The less that we know
Denial

Passing by the drugstore
I see this girl inside
Flipping through a magazine
I see how she should be
I stare a little closer
But no one seems to mind
That sad happy look she's giving up for a while

Denial
Denial
Seems like the faster we go, the less we see
The less that we know
Talk about denial
Denial
Seems like the bigger the lie, the more you try
The less we ask why
Denial

Heading down the seawall
Going back to my home
To see a friend who's always hurting
We talk for a while
The smiles are always nervous
The chances are that we'll laugh
Spill our guts, hurry up
Time's running fast

Denial
Denial
Seems like the faster we go, the less we see
The less that we know
Talk about denial
Denial

Seems like the bigger the lie, the more you try
The less we ask why
Denial
Denial
Denial

Come on

Come on now
