Feat. Ida Exner.

lyrics

YOU LIED TO ME

You lied to me - you lied to me
Though some might call it
A clever omission of truth
I dont care about that technicality
Im still dissapointed in you
You promised me- you never would
And I happily believed
Now you lied

I find it hard to accept
Although you are now forgiven
The time and secret you kept
How long would you keep it hidden
Now I will always wonder
What else your keeping under
It wasn’t as much all you didn’t say
It was the way
The way you lied to me

I never knew a person
So close to perfection as you
I held you up as a shining example
A place to hang all of my hope for the world
I needed you - to live up to
This impossible standard I demanded
Then you lied

No one ever struck me as you did
With openness and honesty
We shared so much
No holding back - or so I thought
Your defence and explanation
Made up of the good intention
To shield me from what you knew would waste me completely
So be it! I would rather know and live through and deal with,
Whatever I am thrown
Do not wrap me in cottonwool although you now how fragile I am
Now these thousand pieces I’ve broken into
Would heal together that much faster
If they were not now drenched in this dishonesty
