Lyrics:
I used to trust what I was readin’
Every word in black and white
But lately the stories feel shaky
like there's something you're trying to hide
You print the storm but leave out the rainbow
Sellin’ fear, and that ain’t right
You tuck the truth back in the shadows
And tear apart people’s lives
You put the lies in headlines
Spin the truth ‘til it’s all gone
Turnin’ neighbors into strangers
And right into wrong
You write the story just to divide
I pray for the day that no one buys it
Yeah, you put the lies… in headlines
It’s more than just the news you’re breakin’
It’s the trust we had in you
Every word feels calculated
For clicks, cash and views
I see my hometown on your pages
But it’s not the place I know
You skip the love, the work, the faces
only tell the part that stirs the show
You put the lies in headlines
Spin the truth ‘til it’s all gone
Turnin’ neighbors into strangers
And right into wrong
You write the story just to divide
I pray for the day that no one buys it
Yeah, you put the lies… in headlines
I miss the days when the truth meant somethin’
And the facts could stand on their own
You put the lies in headlines
Spin the truth ‘til it’s all gone
Turnin’ neighbors into strangers
And right into wrong
You write the story just to divide
I pray for the day that no one buys it
Yeah, you put the lies… in headlines
Stone Cold Lies!
