The Charm Offensive

Senses oh how could you fail us now
Check your heart still makes a hissing sound
It's just another name for sorcery
We still believe in what we never see
Our perception is but a camera trick
Authority a uniform
Another name for a second chance
You offer more
The sophomore

Gold mouth at full voice refuse this should be our choice
We take this lying down, take this lying

And it burns, it burns us all out
As it blows
Everyone into position

We love to lie and pretend that it's ok
We love to save all these words til another day
So don't think on your feet, cos you sink from your feet up
Are you flirting with me?

Charm offensive, perma-pensive
Dream it all away
Some may kill you as you continue
To lie for us I pray

And it burns, it burns us all out
As it blows, blows, it blows everyone into position

Come into the opposition
Come into the opposition

So don't think on your feet, cos you sink from your feet up
Are you flirting with me?
But I'm rooting for you, I'm rooting for everyone

They've sold us out again and thrown us in the fire
They say we're all the same
Well, yeah... but we're not liars...
