It's not nice to find out someone hasn't been entirely truthful with you! At least I got a decent song out of it! :)
lyrics
Lies
There was a time in my life when things, they just when click click click click into place,
You came along and you listened so hard,
While you analysed my face, my place, my world, my space,
Did you think that you could infiltrate my heart?
Game over, over, you win from the start
Get away out of my head now,
Stay away from places that we met
I need to be alone, without you
Hanging on.
I can’t live permanently
Wrapped up in your sordid fantasy,
We have no future,
You knew that, but does she?
I was drawn in and I somehow
Let things begin,
But you told me lies,
Not once, not twice,
You fed me,
A whole pack of lies.
You wanted cake and I let you eat and eat and eat until you ached,
But now I’m taking it away, cause you’re severely overdosing – it just doesn’t work that way
You promised in time you’d be solely mine
But that was never ever, ever what you had in mind
Get away out of my head now,
Stay away from places that we met
I need to be alone, without you
Hanging on.
I can’t live permanently
Wrapped up in your sordid fantasy,
We have no future,
You knew that, but does she?
I was drawn in and I somehow
Let things begin,
But you told me lies,
Not once, not twice,
You fed me,
A whole pack of lies.
I hope you cry when you think of me,
You cry when you think of me,
Cry, don’t sleep at all,
But I don’t think that will be the case,
Cause your “conscience” doesn’t exist in your tiny headspace.
.........What can I say?
Get away out of my head now,
Stay away from places that we met
I need to be alone, without you
Hanging on.
I can’t live permanently
Wrapped up in your sordid fantasy,
We have no future,
You knew that, but does she?
I was drawn in and I somehow
Let things begin,
But you told me lies,
Not once, not twice,
You fed me,
A whole pack of lies.
Lies.
Not once. Or twice.
A whole pack of.
LIES!
