I don't want to be hostile.
I don't want to be dismal.
And I don't want to rot in an
apathetic existence.
See I want to believe you,
and I want to trust you,
and I want to have faith to
put away the dagger.

But you lie, cheat, and steal.
You lie, cheat, and steal.
You lie, cheat, and steal.
And I tolerate you.

You lie, cheat, and steal.
You lie, cheat, and steal.
You lie, cheat, and steal.
And yet I tolerate you.

Veil of virtue hung to hide your method
While I smile and laugh and dance
And sing your praise and glory.
Shroud of virtue hung to mask your stigma
As I smile and laugh and dance
And sing your glory

While you lie, cheat, and steal.
You lie, cheat, and steal.
You lie, cheat, and steal.
How can I tolerate you?

You lie, cheat, and steal.
You lie, cheat, and steal.
You lie, cheat, and steal.
How can I tolerate you?

Our guilt, our blame,
I've been far too sympathetic.
Our blood, our fault.
I've been far too sympathetic.

I'm not innocent.
I'm not innocent.
You are not innocent.
No one is innocent.

You lie, cheat, and steal. (x15)
How can I tolerate you?

I will not tolerate you.
I will go down beside you.
I must go down beside you.
No one is innocent.
