A Better Lie Songtext
von Ben Ottewell

You walked past the scotch grass
From wherever in this bottom
And fast born you have learned
Feed and watch them grow

Premium tattoo, red and brown
Water stopped from flowing
One shot takes its spotting down
You′ll achieve the throne

There's no easy exit here
There′s no clear direction home
From the top, you're looking down
It's just a better lie you told


The great prey had fall at last
You took the fire on ′em
And cut back the vein with a knife
Cuts right through the bone

You turned your back and walked away
From wherever in this bottom
Where the coal chokes the stove
Laughed and say I′m not cold

There's no easy exit here
There′s no clear direction home
From the top, you laughed out loud
It's just a better lie you told
Just a better lie you told
Just a better lie you told

Just a better lie you told
Sooner we′ll all be sold
Just a better lie you told
