GREEN DAY LYRICS - One Of My Lies

"One Of My Lies"



When I was younger I thought the world circled around me

But in time I realized I was wrong

My immortal thoughts turned into just dreams of a dead future

It was a tragic case of my reality



Do you think you're indestructible

And no one can touch you

Well I think you're disposable

And it's time you knew the truth...



'Cause it's just one of my lies!

Well, it's just one of my lies

And all I wanted to was get real high

Well, it's just one of my lies



Why does my life have to be so small?

Yet death is forever

And does forever have a life to call its own?

Don't give me an answer 'cause you

Only know as much as I know

Unless you're been there once

Well I hardly think so



Do you think you're indestructible

And no one can touch you

Well I think you're disposable

And it's time you knew the truth...



'Cause it's just one of my lies!

Well, it's just one of my lies

And all I wanted to was get real high

Well, it's just one of my lies



I used to pray all night

Before I lay myself down

My mother said it was right

Her mother said it too...

Why?
