lyrics

Brilliant Cover-up by: B K Williamson © 3/31/2013

I know I should be happy
there’s somethin' very wrong
I’m feeling pretty crappy
Get the doctor on the phone
Long distance medication
connect me if you please
His custom preparation
is exactly what I need

You think you know me better
And you want to be my fix
I’m yours in sunny weather
That’s all there is to it
I used to think forever
was attainable and true
And happy ever after
was something we all do

Chorus:

I'd give anything to see
beyond this cloud that covers me
Lie to yourself enough
An' all that’s left... is your brilliant cover-up
What used to be is gone
Disappearing oh so quick
The lines of right an’ wrong gettin' sucked into the mix
That monkey on your back
an' your day to day routine
You're slippin' through the cracks
of this life so obscene
Where there’s life there is hope
Is what you’re telling me
We all learn to cope and the truth will set you free
Been down this road before to find a dead-end street
I’d love to think there’s more than this illusion killing me

Chorus: =======
