Lied

Here i lied, wide awake, feeling nothing...

Here i lied

Didn't speak, just said nothing

Here i liked, stretched the truth,

Gave you the answers you wanted

As i reach for

Another quick thing to say

I've lied

Meanwhile...

Here they lied, wide awake, feeling nothing

Here they lied

Side by side

Far away

Tin men and soldiers are bringing you home

She waits for you and you're not there

I know what you thought and i thought so too

She said that she'd wait forever

She tried

He tried

I tried all the way

I tried

You tried

We lied

All the words that get wasted

(on what's not heard/the right thing to say)

Lied

In the bedroom, things get heated

She bleeds, he heals her wound

She leads, they live, they leave the room

Isn't it a thin line in between lover & hate,

Innocent affection, lust and rape

What gets given to us, what we take from each other

Mommy, look at the naked ape trying to communicate

Singing words that don't mean anything

I can never let myself forget

Sometimes i feel so far away

I'll try not to

This helps me not to

I tried, you tried, we tried all the way
