Bent but Not Broken

Why are we still so surprised
Every time we buy the lie?
Why don't we pursue the truth
Even when it's hard to do?

And all we want is to believe
And it's OK if we're slightly deceived
But maybe we're missing the point that
We're listening to liars and thieves

You're bent but you just won't break
Some things will never change

Why are we so slow to say
They've figured out another way?
Why are we so quick to judge
Anyone who's not like us?

And all we want is to believe
And it's OK if we're slightly deceived
But maybe we're missing the point that
We're listening to liars and thieves

You're bent but you just won't break
Some things will never change

You said you would never be in lock step
Walking with the rest of them
I barely recognize if there is anything left of you
And I want something more
