The Offspring

Half-Truism Lyrics

One is for envy and one just for spite
The cuts in my heart, they show in your eyes.
Don´t make it better
The twisting knife turns all by itself, on to someone else.

Your self liberation will leave this behind
Beyond slings and arrows that rain on our minds
You'll make it better. Shake it off.
It never mattered anyway...

If we don't make it alive
Well it's a hell of a good day to die.
All our light, that shines strong
Only lasts for so long.
And it's ashes to ashes again
Should we even try to pretend?
All our light, that shines strong
Only lasts for so long.

The banner you're waving, it's burning and red
It's blocking the sunlight, that shines overhead.
You against the world, diamonds and pearls
Voices inside you churn
Watch the city burn

Your own-liberation will leave this behind
All the slings and arrows, that rain on your mind
Don´t make it better
Breake it cause it never mattered, anyway ...

If we don't make it alive
Well it's a hell of a good day to die.
All our light, that shines strong
Only lasts for so long.
Well it's ashes to ashes again
Should we even try to pretend?
All our light, that shines strong
Only lasts for so long.

I won't calm down.

The banner you waving
It's burning and red
You against the world
Diamonds and pearls
It never mattered, mattered, mattered, anyway...

If we don't make it alive
It's a hell of a good day to die.
All our light, that shines strong
Only lasts for so long.
And it's ashes to ashes again
Should we even try to pretend?
All our light, that shines strong
Only lasts for so long.

All our light, that shines strong
Only lasts for so long.
