Backfire, with a smoking gun
And the mask falls off for everyone to see

Backfire, and the coup is done
Pull the needle out, its time to run from me

But don't let the truth get high
There's a new stage
And a world of lies to breathe

Its all jaded
When the whole world is a mark
Play it fierce, its not real

Backfire, and the cover's blown
What was once arcane lies now exposed

Backfire, and the bird has flown
As the crude disguise is overthrown by greed

But don't let the truth get high
There's a new stage
And a world of lies to breathe

Its all wasted
All those years kissing head
Its all gone, back to start

Don't let the truth get too high
Build a brand new reality
Don't let true colours stain those eyes
No, just pretend that it's not real

It's not real, it's not real
It's not real, it's not real
