So the Story Goes

Poison's easy just leaves a little trace
So is treason but it's so hard losin' face
The hardest part as everybody knows
Is that God is watchin'
And there's nothing he don't know

So the story goes
So the story goes
So the story goes
So the story goes

Farmers hate the trees
And the doctors love disease
And the cops get paid by criminals
To let them keep the streets
And every things a lie
And everybody knows
I saw it on T.V
On a reality show

So the story goes
So the story goes
So the story goes
So the story goes

And mighty is the man
With power on his side
And beauty is but sex
With a hollow inside
And money is the answer
To all of your woes
And anyone who is anyone
Will tell you so

So the story goes
So the story goes
So the story goes
So the story goes

And a wave of sadness rushes to the shore
And truths the ugly stranger standin' at your door
And the words you said I believe down to my core
You said I love you now
And I will forever more
Forever more

So the story goes
So the story goes
So the story goes
So the story goes
