\"Meet<\/p>\n

T<\/span>here are lies. There are damnable lies.<\/p>\n

And there are pretty lies you want to live inside forever.<\/p>\n

You want them whispered to you. You want to hear them in your dreams. You want to find them scribbled on notes and stuck on the refrigerator in the morning.<\/p>\n

And when they’re just a fading, bittersweet memory… you long to hear them again — one more time.<\/p>\n\n

THE WORLD OF LIES
\n<\/strong>
\nMeet me in the world of lies
\nlet’s be hypnotized…<\/em><\/p>\n

You know that love
\nis just a foolish game
\nit always fades away
\nI know that you won’t stay
\nbut at least you’re here today<\/p>\n

Meet me in the world of lies
\nlet’s be hypnotized
\nSomething in me <\/em>dies<\/em>
\nevery time a dream slips by<\/em><\/p>\n

I know that I’ll always be alone
\nI know life is just to die
\na wise man gives up the world
\nbut I guess I’m just not that wise<\/p>\n

Meet me in the world of lies
\nlet’s be hypnotized
\nDon’t let this dream die
\nmeet me in the world of lies<\/em><\/p>\n
