Oh, what a tangled web we weave
When we set out to fib and deceive
Making our lot look larger than life
So no one spots our darkening eyes

We try to project a life of joy and light
Glossing over annoying hurt and spite
Only showing photos that are sweet n kind
So know one notices we're slowly losing our mind

Now we have new fangled webs we weave
When we set out to fib and mislead
We pretend to be larger than life
So no one questions our far reaching lies

We try to project a life of joy and light
Glossing over annoying hurt and spite
Only showing photos that are sweet n kind
So know one knows we're slowly losing our mind

It's time we drop the facade
Can't fool an all-knowing God
He sees us as we truly are
With all our flaws and scars

He offers us a life of true joy n light
If we'll follow Him with all our might
He's not given us a spirit of fear
But of power, love n a sound mind

It's time we drop the facade
Can't fool an all-knowing God
He sees us as we truly are
With all our flaws and scars

He knows we're but dust
And yet He beckons to us
To give our hearts to God
It's time to drop the facade
Drop the facade
Drop the facade
Drop the facade

Drop the Facade
