Hyperbole

It will change your life
It will take you from the dark into the light
Nothing can prepare you
You're so empty now
You're so empty now

Hyperbole
Prove it to me
My eyes won't see, show it to me

So many promises of joy, so many empty words of happiness
I'm doing fine here on my own, better than you no matter how you spin it
Yeah, that's the ticket

If I say it long enough it will be true (I can't hear you, I know it's not true)
If I say it loud enough you'll think it too I can't hear you, I know it's not true)

There's no greater peace
All the pressures of your chaotic life will cease
You can be like we are
You're so lonely now
You're so lonely now

You make it sound so tempting, but I didn't just get off the turnip truck
I won't buy what you're peddling, the ship you're selling me has run aground
I've been around

If I say it long enough it will be true (I can't hear you, I know it's not true)
If I say it loud enough you'll think it too I can't hear you, I know it's not true)

Hyperbole - getting to me
Don't you think that I want to believe, that I want to be free, that I want to be happy in life
Don't you know that I've been burned before, if I open the door, are you going to be there for me
Just maybe...
