I tell Apeople, you just going through Dchanges And that you’re Aacquainted both with night and Dday That your Amoney’s good and you’re just being couDrageous On them Aburning bridges knowing your Dfeet are made of clay Well I Asay you won’t be destroyed by your inDventions That you Abrought it all under captiviDty And that you Areally do have all the best inDtentions But you’re Amaking a Gliar Dout of Ame
[Verse 2]
Well I Asay that you’re just young and self-Dtormented But that Adeep down you underDstand The Ahopes and fears and dreams of the disconDtented That tAhreaten now to overtake your promised Dland Well I Asay you’d not sow discord among Dbrothers Nor Adrain a man of his integrity D That you reAmember the cries of orphans and their Dmothers But you’re Amaking a Gliar Dout of Ame But you’re Amaking a Gliar out of Ame
[Verse 3]
Well I Asay that, that ain’t flesh and blood you’re Ddrinking In the Awounded empire of your fool’s paraDdise With a Alight above your head forever blinking D Turning Avirgins into merchanDdise That you Amust have been beautiful when you were Dliving You reAmind me of some old-time used-to-Dbe I Asay you can be trusted with the power you been Dgiven But you’re Amaking a Gliar out of Ame
[Verse 4]
So Amany things so hard to say as you Dstumble To take Arefuge in your offices of Dshame As the Aearth beneath my feet begins to Drumble And your Ayoung men die for nothin’, not even Dfame I say that Asomeday you’ll begin to Dtrust us And that your Aconscience has not been slain by conformiDty That you sAtand up unafraid to believe in Djustice But you’re Amaking a Gliar Dout of Ame You’re Amaking a Gliar Dout of Ame
[Verse 5]
Well I Acan hear the sound of distant Dthunder From an Aopen window at the end of every Dhall A Now that you’re gone I got to Dwonder A If you ever were here at all D I Asay you never sacrificed my Dchildren To some Afalse god of infidelity D And that it’s Anot the Tower of Babel that you’re Dbuilding But you’re Amaking a Gliar Dout of Ame You’re Amaking a Gliar Dout of Ame Now, you’re Amaking a Gliar Dout of me A
