[Verse 1]
If one day you'd backed up
A promise you made
We'd have to make it a holiday
'Cause we both know
That day would never come again
And if one day your word
Was as good as gold
It'd be too late 'cause I'd be too old
I don't think a human being
Could live that long

[Bridge]
I never gave a damn
I was never even a fan
The only thing that
Makes me smile is your pain
I don't even care
When did you treat anyone fair?
To say I'm not enjoying this
Would be insane

[Pre-Chorus]
Sodium Pentothal was an idea I had
But what does the truth mean now
To all the lost souls you've grabbed?
A mass delusion, mass delusion
There's no confusion, no confusion
Just a hypocrite who'd never cop to it
[Chorus]
You're in total control
And you're still a liar
I can't drink from the cup
I question your authority
You gotta 'fess up
You're in total control
And your faith is tired
I can't drink from the cup
Where is truth in the trinity?
You gotta 'fess up

[Verse 2]
If this affects it, it's hard to tell
You spend too many
Cold days in your cell
Never been one to admit that
Something might be wrong

[Bridge]
I never gave a damn
I was never even a fan
The only thing that
Makes me smile is your pain
If I ever had the chance
I'd kick out your chair
Just to watch you dance
Irrelevant, your vanity prevents change
[Pre-Chorus]
Sodium Pentothal
Still sounds great to me
An imitation of life buried in theology
A mass delusion, mass delusion
There's no confusion, no confusion
Just a hypocrite who'd never cop to it

[Chorus]
You're in total control
And you're still a liar
I can't drink from the cup
I question your authority
You gotta 'fess up
You're in total control
And your faith is tired
I can't drink from the cup
Where is truth in the trinity?
You gotta 'fess up

[Bridge]
Cop to it, cop to it
Cop to it, cop to it
You're in total control
And you're still a liar
Cop to it, cop to it
You're in total control
And your faith is tired
Cop to it, cop to it
I can't drink from the cup
Cop to it, 'fess up
I can't drink from the cup
Cop to it, 'fess up
I can't drink from the cup
Cop to it, 'fess up
I can't drink from the cup
Cop to it, 'fess up
