Human Nature

It wasn’t even difficult, I hardly had to try
Just my human nature, damned hard to deny
And it started with one little white lie
Lie, lie, pretty little lie … compromising
Lie, Lie, one shade at a time … one shade at a time
Lie, lie, dirty little lie … no disguising
Lie, lie, an addiction to crime … an addiction to crime
And you’re no different than me, the disease the same
And you’re not different from her, only the symptoms change
Only the symptoms change
The disease … the disease remains
I didn’t think it possible, it’s all beyond my shame
That my heart is noble, and I believed this game
Now it’s started, it’s all the same
