telling stories

　　There is fiction in the space between

　　The lines on your page of memories

　　Write it down but it doesn't mean

　　You're not just telling stories

　　There is fiction in the space between

　　You and reality

　　You will do and say anything

　　To make your everyday life

　　Seem less mundane

　　There is fiction in the space between

　　You and me

　　There's a science fiction in the space between

　　You and me

　　A fabrication of a grand scheme

　　Where I am the scary monster

　　I eat the city and as I leave the scene

　　In my spaceship I am laughing

　　In your remembrance of your bad dream

　　There's no one but you standing

　　Leave the pity and the blame

　　For the ones who do not speak

　　You write the words to get respect and compassion

　　And for posterity

　　You write the words and make believe

　　There is truth in the space between

　　There is fiction in the space between

　　You and everybody

　　Give us all what we need

　　Give us one more sad sordid story

　　But in the fiction of the space between

　　Sometimes a lie is the best thing

　　Sometimes a lie is the best thing

　　The best thing

　　Is the best thing
