about

This has proved to be quite a favourite among (alleged) fans, and understandably so since it's rather straightforward in stature. A folksy pop shuffle dealing with the insincerity between people.

lyrics

Speak out!
Now that we are here I want you to show
who you are, where you've been
all the things that you've seen prior to now
Answer!
I didn't lay out all my issues of thought
just to hear you agree with a faint hum and turn to the others

And you may think I've got the worst of intents
Because it is dark and the only thing we share
is ale an Chardonnay
But I'm true now, I'm not after prey

So cease your doubting now
Clear the passage and let in
the things you never knew could be for real
Don't be frightened now
Truth is always at your hands
The only way to cope is to resign
So bear in mind how you feel
before you pretend to agree

So many things that are said without thought
How can we know what's real?
Never a thought of who will remember your lies

Talking never easy when you know it won't be taken seriously
And you wonder who'll turn it to slander
Liar!
Did you ever get the notion I spared?
How hard should I try?
How could I know I'm right if you won't tell?

So now you taught me that the truth isn't worthy
Opression is freedom and war is peace
Oh no, you won't be fooling me
It's not right just because you all agree
