[Intro] Listen closely I would never lie to you Would I? [Verse 1] Everybody has a secret Everybody wears a face Everybody tells you something Just to keep you in your place Truth is only what they gave you Written by somebody's hand Change a word and change a kingdom Change a lie and rule the land [Pre-Chorus] Don't believe them Believe me They're afraid of what I see Every hero Every saint Looks much better under paint [Chorus] Believe me Believe me I can tell you what is real Trust me Trust me You don't need to think or feel Every truth can be rewritten Every promise can be bent Cyric Cyric If I said it That's what it meant [Verse 2] Friends are only future traitors Love is leverage dressed in gold Give somebody all your secrets Watch how quickly they are sold Power doesn't need permission Power doesn't ask what's right Whisper softly in the daylight Draw the dagger in the night [Pre-Chorus] Don't believe them Believe me They're all jealous, can't you see? Every prophet Every king Lies about everything [Chorus] Believe me Believe me I can tell you what is real Trust me Trust me You don't need to think or feel Every truth can be rewritten Every promise can be bent Cyric Cyric If I said it That's what it meant [Post-Chorus] Lie to me I'll lie to you Say it long enough It becomes true Lie to me I'll make it clean Truth is just A fragile thing [Verse 3] Gods will tell you they are righteous Gods will tell you they are wise Funny how their holy answers Always fit their favorite lies Let them keep their little heavens Let them sit upon their thrones I can make a man destroy them With a whisper all alone [Pre-Chorus] Who needs armies? Who needs steel? When you choose what people feel? One suspicion One small doubt Watch the whole world tear itself out [Chorus] Believe me Believe me I can tell you what is real Trust me Trust me You don't need to think or feel Every truth can be rewritten Every promise can be bent Cyric Cyric If I said it That's what it meant [Bridge] Maybe I betrayed them Maybe they betrayed me Maybe there's no difference Maybe that's the key Maybe I was chosen Maybe I chose myself Maybe all the other gods Are frightened of my name [Breakdown] Who killed the truth? Not me Who broke the oath? Not me Who drew the blade? Not me You saw it too Didn't you? [Build] Say my name Say it louder Every lie becomes power Say my name One more time Your truth Is already mine [Final Chorus] Believe me Believe me I decide what's false or real Trust me Trust me I decide what you will feel Every history can change Every memory can bend Cyric Cyric There is no truth In the end Believe me Believe me Even when you know I lie Cyric Cyric Truth is whatever Survives [Outro] Listen closely I would never lie to you Would I? ...Would I?
