Briquet

They built the city halls, and streets

That the people would walk in

They made promises, and guilt

Was never far away

Why is it that people believe?

And why is it that people pay?

Why is it that sugar is sweet?

Like a devil in disguise they say

I won't make fake promises to you he said

I won't lie all the time like mothers and fathers do

Won't make it all good just for you he said

Better learn to cope before

It gets too hard on you

Please let the music play

Put a soundtrack to this reck

I got a friend here who don't want to stay

Get on a boat and sail away

How did I get so old so fast?

Where did the brother and the sisters go?

I told you that the love wouldn't last

Just like the rest, it will pass

I won't make fake promises to you he said

I won't lie all the time like mothers and fathers do

Won't make it all good just for you he said

Better learn to cope before

It gets too hard on you
