Denial

from Home Grown by Wayne Maureau

lyrics

Living in denial whitewash the facts
But Reality Just keeps coming back
Bend the rules and make a deal
Fake so much you can’t keep it real

Selective memory is the trick
Solid ground is getting pretty slick
Hide the truth to get what you want
No matter who you hurt or what it costs

You rewrite your history
Lie so much that you believe
When your best laid plans fall in the dirt
The ones you love are gonna feel the hurt

living in denial don’t you understand
Can’t see the trees with your head in the sand
Face the fear that you’re feeling
You might be looking but you ain’t seeing

I remember what you forget
Don’t want that ship to sink just yet
Can’t make amends for your mistakes
living in denial makes it all ok

You rewrite your history
Lie so much that you believe
When your best laid plans fall in the dirt
The ones you love are gonna feel the hurt
