Nom De Guerre: Everybody Knows
wakes with a smile / in disbelief / her taste / still on his teeth / her side of the bed is as cold as her heart
Harry sits up / lets out a groan / calls her up / but no-one's home / seems Kimberly's back in denial again
everybody knows / all the friendly smiles are just for show / no-one really wants to say hello / but everybody knows everybody lies / making up the story of their lives / papering the cracks and sharpening knives / everybody lies
wakes with a sigh / his wife's asleep / her face /could make him weep / monotony's left them as dry as a bone
irving gets up / for pity's sake / patiently waits / until she breaks / poor Francis is coming apart at the seams
everybody knows / all the friendly smiles are just for show / no-one really wants to say hello / but everybody knows everybody lies / making up the story of their lives / papering the cracks and sharpening knives / everybody lies
knowing looks and furtive glances / patched-up hearts and worn-out dreams / forlorn hopes and failed romances / nothing is quite what it seems [x]
