Verse 1: Fallen by the roadside, inches from the car
A whirling frenzied vulture pack comes down to our level
And a tiny cry is broken, stifled by the noise
Pleading from minority, a voice
Chorus: And I don?t think I need this anymore
And I don?t need to see the smiles when we?re all broken on the floor
And I don?t think we need this anymore
You?re lying
Verse 2: Fingers tap on glasses, we?ve risen for the speech
Encouragement to nothing, yet, the price is still too steep
And there are compliments to the hostess, congratulations to the man
Who is making our lives hell I bet, beneath that puzzled frown
Chorus: And I don?t think I need this anymore
And I don?t need to see the smiles when we?re all broken on the floor
And I don?t think we need this anymore
You?re lying, you?re lying, you?re lying
