Lyrics
Verse 1
Hey God, why are you doing this to me?
Am I not living up to what I’m supposed to be?
Why am I seething with this animosity?
Hey God, I think you owe me a great big apology
Chorus
Terrible Lie
Terrible Lie
Terrible Lie
Terrible Lie
Verse 2
Hey God, I really don’t know what you mean.
Seems like salvation comes only in our dreams.
I feel my hatred grow all the more extreme.
Hey God, can this world really be as sad as it seems?
Chorus
Terrible Lie
Terrible Lie
Terrible Lie
Terrible Lie
Bridge
Don’t take it away from me. I need you to hold on to.
Don’t tear it away from me. I need someone to hold on to.
Don’t take it, don’t take it, don’t.
Verse 3
Hey God, There’s nothing left for me to hide.
I lost my ignorance, security, and pride.
I’m all alone in a world you must despise.
Hey God, I believed your promises, your promises and lie
Chorus
Terrible Lie
Terrible Lie
Terrible Lie
Terrible Lie
Post-Chorus
You make me throw it all away.
My morals left to decay.
How many you betray?
You’ve taken everything.
My head is filled with disease.
My skin is begging you, please.
I’m on my hands and knees.
I want so much to believe.
