They tell us we go to war
for the good of all,
they tell us when you die
for honour, stand up tall.
The reasons for everything wrapped in lies,
another puff of smoke and everyone dies.
So we all sing -

This is the human myth,
a story candy coated fake.
So spread your paper wings
soggy from the rain.
So raise your arms
attached to puppet strings.
Welcome to your life,
welcome to another dream dead.
Welcome to the truth,
because the rest is just the human myth.

...(music)...

This is the human myth,
a story candy coated fake.
So spread your paper wings
soggy from the rain.
So raise your arms
attached to puppet strings.
Welcome to your life,
welcome to another dream dead.
Welcome to the truth,
because the rest is just the human myth.

You are lost and lonely,
you are lost and lonely.
But no one cares, no one cares.
They tell you there'll be someone
to hold your hand.
They tell you there'll be a
rainbow after every storm.
But instead you sing -

This is the human myth,
a story candy coated fake.
So spread your paper wings
soggy from the rain.
So raise your arms
attached to puppet strings.
Welcome to your life,
welcome to another dream dead.
Welcome to the truth,
because the rest is just the human myth.
