There are times I think my crimes are worse than most
And there are times that I am haunted by the ghosts
Of my past though I keep them under cover
Someday, someday you may discover

It’s all true, but it’s all lies
It’s all rumor and disguise
It’s all love, but it’s all war
And it’ll leave you crying
‘ Til you’re back for more, ‘til you’re back for more

I don’t know if this rainbow has an end
And I don’t know if my heart will break or bend
We grow wise, we grow bitter, sometimes we just grow old
And we do what we can to believe what we are told

And it’s all true, but it’s all lies
It’s all rumor and disguise
It’s all love, but it’s all war
And it’s right in focus
But it’s best ignored, it’s best ignored

Call me a fool
There’s a good chance that I am
Call me full of contradiction, but understand
Sometimes black is not so far from what we’re sure is white
And you can sort out all the pieces, but you’ll never get it right

Cuz it’s all true, but it’s all lies
It’s all rumor and disguise
It’s all love, but it’s all war
And it’s at the surface, but it’s at the core
