One Two Three Four Honesty won't inoculate you from lies And watering stumps, prayin' something will grow, but you know that it won't And you, callin' on angels, and you workin' all the angles But ain't you heard, they don't help out ungratefuls They know the deal How many smiles do you count we have left to wear How many ways did they swear it be alright How many eyes do we have left to deceive I rather bleed myself out than let them Burn me up up Up up Up up Burn me up up Up up Up up Repeat it to yourself enough times til' it's true If no one knows, then who knows, it might really be the case You love to linger on your reveries til' the chemicals kick in And then you freak out when you can't come back down Once more is never the last one, nothing is enough You took all the amusement and cooked your smile The details lost their devils, but the irony took them in And don't you dare let them spin your head off You never live it down How many smiles do you count we have left to wear How many ways did they swear it be alright How many eyes do we have left to deceive I rather bleed myself out than let them Burn me up Up up Up up Burn me up up Up up Up up Up up Up up Up up Up up Up up Up up How many smiles do you count we have left to wear How many ways did they swear it be alright How many eyes do we have left to deceive I rather bleed myself out than And when the wings fell, you had to make the way by foot Under a bad sign, it was a bad sign When the night falls, you bend and fold Until morning calls you, pray it'll show you the way home When the wings fell, you had to make the way by foot Under a bad sign, it was a bad sign When the night falls, you bend and fold Until morning calls you, pray it'll show you the way home
