oh now, how's it go now?
you've been so long on my mind
they say what we all say,
her life's a landslide
(repeat)

she is handing out no pardon
her generosity is thin
since reciprocity was weakened
they all think she's caving in

pre-chorus:
halfway between what was too nice or mean
she lay down, looked around
sat on the scales just to see what prevails
when it's cold, she feels so bold
(she says)

chorus:
my truth tastes better than your lies...

when it's right it folds up neatly
she can tie it with a bow
when it's wrong it rips too quickly
before she can quite let it go

pre-chorus
chorus

bridge:
oh now, how's it go now?
you've been so long on my mind
they say, what we all say
her life's a landslide...

and still she says:

chorus out
