The Day That No One Smiled

the hardest rain won't erase
 the bitterest slap to your face
 resentment that you can taste
 resentment that you can't fake
 who's faking it now?
 revisionist, untrue
 they laugh and they lie to you
 the truth is understood and overdue
 long distance, "he'll be right with you"
 spin the verdict, tighten the noose
 you never have to wait for good news
 i wouldn't want to be in my shoes
 still standing...
 revisionist, untrue
 they laugh and they lie to you
 the truth is understood and overdue
 "what should we do now?"
 they turn to me somehow
 as I lose my poker face
 and stop pretending
 that I know which way to turn
 an unforgiving burn
 suffocates us, fills my lungs
 an inferno
 revisionist, untrue
 they laugh and they lie to you
 the truth is understood and overdue
