There is a 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
<Interlude>
There is a fiction
in the space between
You and reality
You will do and say anything
To make you're everybody life
Seem less mundane
There is a fiction
in the space between
You and me
<Interlude>
There's a science fiction
in the space between
You and me
A fabrication a grand scheme
Where I am the scary monster
I eat the city
and I leave the scene
In my spaceship I am laughing
In your remembrance
of your bad dream
There's no one but you standing
<Interlude>
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 a fiction
in the space between
You and everybody
Give us all what we need
Give us one more sad
and sordid story
But in the fiction
of the space between
Sometimes a lie
is the best thing
Sometimes a lie
is the best thing
Oh the best thing
is the best thing
Oh the best thing
is the best thing
