I'm living a lie because I can't tell the truth
There's a fire in the basement
A fire on the roof
I'm just sitting in my chair wearing a smile
I'm going to vanish in the air after awhile
Did did you get the news that I'm lost at sea
Hey, hey somebody's confused though it couldn't be me
I wasn't near that place
I don't know where it was
She didn't see my face
You know its true because
I know wise things
I know about these things
I know why it is caged
So I don't know why I'm enraged

I'm lying about my birth and I'm lying about my death
For all I'm worth, I lie with every breath
Lying homes are built on my crying habitations
Here's the milk that I spilt
My undying lamitations
I know about these things, I know about these things
I know why it is caged
So I don't know why I'm enraged

Always the bride's maid, never the bride
Look what my bride's made, out of my life
Always the bride's maid, never the bride
Look what your bride's made, you shook my life
Always the bride's maid, never the bride
Look what your bride's made, and you know, you shouldn't have lied
