Puzzled by Tricks and Lies

 

Puzzled by Tricks and Lies

Hold it up
To candelight
To see it better
To see it right
Right?

So hold it up
To give it flight
That Truth inside you
You’ve caged so tightly

If I swapped a copy of you, man
One for one with everyone in the world
Would it be a better place?
Or would it all crumble and decay?

Hold it up
Demand the light
To see it clearly
To know what’s really right

Hold it up
Two fingers wide
This noble standard
Will be our guiding light

If I swapped a copy of you, sir
One for one with everyone in the world
Would it be a better place?
Or would it all crumble and decay?

If I swapped a copy of you, dear
One for one with everyone in the world
Would you live a better life?
Or still be puzzled by tricks and lies?

I’m puzzled
