The Offspring - Half-Truism lyrics

One is for envy and one just for spite
The cuts in my heart they show in your eyes
Don't make it better the twisting knife
Turns all by it'self move on to someone else

Your self-liberation will leave this behind
Beyond slings and arrows
That rain on our minds you'll make it better
Shake it off it never mattered anyway

If we don't make it alive
Well, it's a hell of a good day to die
All our light that shines strong
Only lasts for so long
And it's ashes to ashes again
Should we even try to pretend?
All our light that shines strong
Only lasts for so long

The banner you're waving is burning and red
It's blocking the sunlight


That shines overhead you against the world
Diamonds and pearls voices inside you churn
Watch the city burn

Your own liberation will leave them behind
All the slings and arrows
That rain on your mind don't make it better
Break it cause it never mattered anyway

If we don't make it alive
Well, it's a hell of a good day to die
All our light that shines strong
Only lasts for so long
And it's ashes to ashes again
Should we even try to pretend?
All our light that shines strong
Only lasts for so long

I won't calm down

The banner you're waving is burning and red
You against the world diamonds and pearls
It never mattered, mattered, mattered anyway

If we don't make it alive
Well, it's a hell of a good day to die
All our light that shines strong
Only lasts for so long
And it's ashes to ashes again
Should we even try to pretend?
All our light that shines strong
Only lasts for so long
All our light that shines strong
Only lasts for so long
