Lie For A Lie
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
A game's a game, I hear you say
Enough emotion in a day
We'll never live enough to play
I hear you say
You make the way, you make the moves
Giving clues about the rules
But there's no way to warn the fools
They're only fools
But there's no way to warn the fools
They're just fools
Give me a lie for a lie
Give me a truth for a truth
Nothing is hard to believe
No one is hard to deceive
Leave me a light in the dark
Give me a lie for a lie
Give me a lie for a lie
Give me a truth for a truth
So let the fire within me burn
You know something I should learn
But I don't know which way to turn
Still I turn
But I don't know which way to turn
Still I turn
Give me a lie for a lie
Give me a truth for a truth
Nothing is hard to believe
No one is hard to deceive
Leave me a light in the dark
Give me a lie for a lie
Give me a lie for a lie
Give me a truth for a truth
And when the flame begins to go
I'll be there inside the door
You'll never know that I care more
Than I can show
You'll never know that I care more
Than I can show
Give me a lie for a lie
Give me a truth for a truth
Nothing is hard to believe
No one is hard to deceive
Leave me a light in the dark
Give me a lie for a lie
Give me a lie for a lie
Give me a truth for a truth
Give me a lie for a lie
Give me a truth for a truth
Nothing is hard to believe
No one is hard to deceive
Leave me a light in the dark
Give me a lie for a lie
Give me a lie for a lie
Give me a truth for a truth
