False News Travel Fast Lyrics

Album: Silence

I look out the window

I see the sun in the sky

For now, it is not for me

Stories of old times

Black book of lies with no reason nor rhymes

No secrets, no disguise

Colour of the jealousy that hangs over thee

Why don’t you believe?

You still do not know me

Books of true tales

Mirrors of tragedy

Remorseful and pale

As always these news travel fast

Walking the snowfields

How can I trust in this path I leave?

Fading behind me

Pleading not guilty!

It is the nature of humankind

Installed in a man-child

Life can do it in many ways

Toss dirt on your face

But I am your man

And for you I do all I can!

Books of true tales

Mirrors of tragedy

Remorseful and pale

As always these news travel fast

Standing on the station

Watching your train slowly disappear (slowly)

I’m only shell of a man

I thought you knew who I am

But go ahead and blame the fool

You have beliefs that aren’t true

I have not lived the life you read from...

The books of true tales

Mirrors of tragedy

My life is no game

It’s a real shame – false news travel fast

Why do you keep me in the agony?

The book of true tales

How can you hate and keep me in this agony?

The mirror of tragedy

I haven’t lied, I haven’t cheated!

The book of true tales

What do you think and what do you see

When you look in the mirror of tragedy?

I am still your man

And for you I do all I can!

Books of true tales!

Mirrors of tragedy!

Remorseful and pale

As in past these news travel fast

The books of true tales!

Mirrors of tragedy!

My life is no game

It’s a real shame – false news travel fast!

News travel fast!
