Conspiracy Theory Lyrics - Steve Earle

What if I told you it was done with mirrors? 

What if I showed you it was all a lie? 

Better be careful someone might hear ya 

The walls have ears and the sky has eyes 

What if I said you were only dreamin'? 

What you wanna bet that all you gotta do 

Is open up your eyes and you will wake up screamin' 

When you realize that it's all come true? 

Hush, now, don't you believe it 

Cover your head and close your eyes 

Now, take it or leave it 

Go back to bed now, don't you cry

Half a million soldiers fly across the water 

One in ten are never comin' back again 

Fifty thousand sons who never grew to fathers 

Don't you ever wonder who they might have been 

What if you could've been there on that day in Dallas? 

What if you could wrestle back the hands of time? 

Maybe somehtin' could've been done in Memphis 

We wouldn't be livin' in a dream that's died 

Photos 

Go on and tell yourself again there are no secrets 

Go on and tell yourself that you don't want to know 

It's best that you believe that you don't hear the footsteps 

That follow you around wherever you go 

Maybe you were thinkin' that it didn't matter 

Maybe you believed nobody else would care 

But once you've added every little tile together 

You finally find the truth was always waiting there.
