  • It's a fake, it's a hoax
    It's a nowhere road where no one goes
    Anywhere, anyhow
    Well you're following your heart rate down

    She's a rose, she's a queen
    But she's staring at a magazine
    In the dark, on that path
    Where they doctor every photograph

    [Chorus]
    Another is waiting
    She isn't saying anything

    If you care, if you like
    Well, I'm standing in the lantern light
    With our weapons and our love
    And I use them both to cover up

    [Chorus]
    Another is waiting
    She isn't saying anything

    But I love you and I care
    So you've got to get off that conveyor belt
    If I could
    I would come right in and take you off myself

    It's a fake, it's a con
    The nature of the road you're on
    Let me see your skeleton
    Well before your life is done

    [Chorus: x2]
    Another is waiting
    She isn't saying anything Writer/s: ROBERT WILLIAM CRAWFORD, SCOTT YANCEY AVETT, TIMOTHY SETH AVETT
