(intro) (3x) Working man’s day wage just piss it away Leaves it out in the weather Failure he said times two breeds contempt Wash your hands of it forever Violence it ripped through the old dogwood fence See the hope see it unravel Drunk brother said he could reason with them While they lied at night they lied at night while they lied While they lied at night they lied at night while they lied The picture was left on the front porch the back said "I love you don’t you ever think of me?" If my body goes then to hell with my soul We don’t even know the difference The dead folks in the clouds for crying out loud While they lied at night they lied at night while they lied While they lied at night they lied at night while they lied And why did we live so long So long So long (intro) The house is not the same since we left it that day Old friends seem to wonder Our parents had cigarettes wedding bands While they lied at night they lied at night while they lied While they lied at night they lied at night while they lied And why did we live so long So long So long ( ) ( ) (2x) While they lied at night they lied at night while they lied While they lied at night they lied at night while they lied While they lied at night they lied at night while they lied Oh....

La chanson évoque les luttes de la vie quotidienne, où l'effort et le travail acharné semblent souvent vains face aux déceptions et aux désillusions. Elle aborde des thèmes comme la violence et la perte, tout en mettant en lumière les relations familiales et les souvenirs qui perdurent malgré les conflits. Les mots révèlent un sentiment de mélancolie, où les promesses de bonheur, symbolisées par des détails banals comme des cigarettes et des alliances de mariage, s'effritent au fil du temps. Le contexte pourrait refléter des expériences personnelles, où les générations passées ont caché leurs vérités derrière des apparences, laissant une empreinte sur ceux qui restent. Les souvenirs d'une maison vide et des amis perdus soulignent les changements inévitables de la vie. On ressent la nostalgie d'une époque révolue, balayant les illusions d'un bonheur durable.
