Pleasant Fiction

[Verse] Stars and stripes they wave so high Blindfold draped upon the sky Everyone just march in line Ignoring shadows on the mind [Verse 2] Heroes painted in our books Not a page for dirty looks Glossy dreams we sell and buy Questions fade we don’t ask why [Chorus] Pleasant fiction oh so sweet Wraps us up from head to feet Living dreams and closing eyes Waking up to perfect lies [Verse 3] Easy answers all around Doubt and truth get lost not found Comfort in the tales they spin Sealed away we’re locked within [guitar solo] [Bridge] Behind curtains stories change But we smile and rearrange Logs in a fire to keep us warm Shielding our hearts from any storm [Chorus] Pleasant fiction oh so sweet Wraps us up from head to feet Living dreams and closing eyes Waking up to perfect lies [end] [end] [end]
