about

The title song from the feature film "Trust (and Other Lies We Tell Ourselves to Sleep at Night)"

lyrics

What's in a name?
Letters and things, I don't know
Cigarettes and champagne
Won't calm you down
Where there's palm trees in the sky
You'd think there'd be paradise
But blue relief
Don't come easy with this kind of life
So with apathy and no set of keys
You wonder what comes next
Borrow some letters for tonight's endeavors
With lies, well what did you expect?

Orange help is the last thing that I need
Flickering with your insecurities
I promise I ain't red
There's just that girl I'm looking for
Name is sweet but she's a mystery
No alter ego in the way no more
You fake your way through life
How do you get away with it most every night?
If you can't get close enough
Then why do you keep stealing all of my stuff
And nesting like a desert bird?
Well I say that's absurd

Secrets held so tight they just can't breathe
Sing them loud, it don't matter if they're off key
They're coming after you
So just let them have their fun
Band has struck its last triangle
Until the night is done
Shackles hold if you don't know how to break them
And things once stolen are gifts to those who take them
What is love but a gilded M
Or a foot out the window for feminism?
So why start the truth right now?
We could drown all our letters all over town
Sweet apathy brings you close to me
So close that I might bite
For trust is but a lie we tell ourselves
To sleep at night
To sleep at night
