Twist (0147)

Chorus
People are serious…
People are crazy…
People are bright…
People are shady…
People are friendly, people are enemies
People admire, people envy
People are cruel, people are kind
People are honest, people lie
And it seems to me
That some have more than one
Personality.

Verse 1
Deceiving… what we see
Believing… uncertainties
All kinds of stories surround me
Iit feels like I’m in a library
Fact and fiction
Humour and religion.

Verse 2
I can see them… where they stand
But was the story… written as planned?
Was there a hidden meaning?
How much of it is true?
Some have no guilt or innocence to prove.

CHORUS

Bridge
I used to believe every word that I heard
I used to believe every word that was said
I used to believe everything that was read
I believed everything to be true.

Verse 3
But now… when I look of you
Now nothing… seems to be true
What was clear has now turned hazy
Since the day you betrayed me
My love for you became too deep
It’s like my dreams turned to nightmares in my sleep.

“You always seemed loyal to me, a lady with morals, respected, pretty, intelligent.
But now all is see is a book spread in the wind, pages flying, smiling back at me,
Laughing at my foolishness for believing all your words
And not seeing the truth that hid beneath your lies.

Chorus
People are serious…
People are crazy…
People are bright…
People are shady…
People are friendly, people are enemies
People admire, people envy
People are cruel, people are kind
People are honest, people lie
And it seems to me
That some have more than one
Side to their personality.
