Do You Want the Truth or Something Beautiful? lyrics

A prophet took my hand on all souls day

He preached the value of deception

Changing shadows by shape shifters rules

Tales are never just for fools

The court of conscience came before me

Presented me with a heavenly angel

He took my hand and ask me truths aside

To his questions I replied

Do you want the truth or something beautiful?

Just close your eyes and make believe

Do you want the truth or something beautiful?

I am happy to deceive you

He stood as tall as redwood trees

Drank tea from a seamstress' thimble

I didn’t want to speak the honest truth

So I spit out lies that aimed to soothe

Do you want the truth or something beautiful?

Just close your eyes and make believe

Do you want the truth or something beautiful?

I am happy to deceive you

Sacred lies and telling tales

I can be who you want me to be

Sacred lies ad telling tales

I can be who you want me to be

But do you want me?

Do you want the truth or something beautiful?

Just close your eyes and make believe

Do you want the truth or something beautiful?

I am happy to deceive you

Sacred lies and telling tales

I can be who you wants me to be

Sacred lies and telling tales

I can be who you wants me to be

But do you want me?

But do you want me?
