See opinions are easier to swallow than facts
The greys instead of the whites and the blacks
If you shoot it too straight they won't come back
We're selling the news
I WANNA BELIEVE YOU, I WANNA BELIEVE
BUT EVERYTHING IS IN-BETWEEN
THE FACT IS FICTION, THE FACT IS FICTION
I WANNA BELIEVE YOU, I WANNA BELIEVE
BUT EVERYTHING IS IN-BETWEEN
THE FACT IS FICTION
SUSPICION IS THE NEW RELIGION
We're selling the news
I can see your talking heads
On the television set
On the Internet they said
The fact is fiction
Suspicion is the new religion
Substance, oh, substance - where have you been?
You've been replaced by the masters of spin
Who make good looking books and write history in
We're selling the news
The lines start to blur, I get so confused
I get shiny new models mixed up with the blues
I get binary code mixed up with abuse
The facts are simply one option to choose
Where nothing is sacred there's nothing to lose
Where nothing is sacred all is consumed
We're still on the air it must be the truth
We're selling the news
