about

I Lied is a metaphorical song that depicts the age old adage "Women... you can't live with em' and you can't live without em'". Real feelings are sometimes better left unspoken, or as in this case, unwritten. Or maybe not!... ; |

lyrics

She read that note I wrote
High on a fifth and I was thinkin'
Dyin dreams are deadly things
For a man alone and drinkin'

Feelin' like its time to go
Gonna leave it all behind
Nobody cares and they'll never know
They'll never find me

Baby I liedI I lied I lied
Oh Baby I wish you'd never seen it
I tried I died inside
Oh I was fighting' for the feeling'
I lied I lied I lied
Oh baby I know you don't believe it
Wide eyed I cried and cried
Oh I don't know all the reasons
I lied

She read it all out loud
I could hear the tears a comin'
She was mad; she was sad
With every word she was chokin'

Findin' out our love was lost
Nothin left of Eden Baby I
I wanna burn those words
I wanna eat em

I liedI I lied I lied
Oh Baby I wish you'd never seen it
I tried I died inside
Oh I was fighting' for the feeling'
I lied I lied I lied
Oh baby I know you don't believe it
Wide eyed I cried and cried
Oh I don't know all the reasons
I lied

She closed her eyes and shook her head
She started talkin' to the wall
Aww I could see this comin' baby
Like winter wind blowing into fall
Every angry eye; All that bitterness you hold
That was yours; Now its mine
I've gotta let you go

Baby I liedI I lied I lied
Oh Baby I wish you'd never seen it
I tried I died inside
Oh I was fighting' for the feeling'
I lied I lied I lied
Oh baby I know you don't believe it
Wide eyed I cried and cried
Oh I don't know all the reasons
I lied
