I Told You A Lie

(album: Brainless God - 2013)

It's kind of awkward to admit that I've been less than forthright
When I implied that I was ready to die
Because my conscience weighs so heavy on my shoulders and mind
I'm coming clean my friend, I told you a lie

In fact, the truth is I've only used this
To understand why we're all here
It's time to dismiss it might be Christmas,
That's just ridiculous from what I can hear

Because the fact is I've been waiting for my love to return
They locked him up for crimes he didn't commit
And all I wanted was to keep myself alive to the end,
So I could have a chance to see him again

And so I led your sorry soul off to your death in the woods,
And I deprived you of a chance to pretend
That this apocalypse was more than just us reaching the end
Of every story, every conflict withstood

In fact, the truth is I've only used this
To understand why we're all here
It's time to dismiss it might be Christmas,
That's just ridiculous from what I can hear

He said his goodbyes, it's my turn to cry
Where is my comfort? I've run out of time
To wonder when I will see my love again
Now that's over, we've come to the end
I've got nothing to say, I've got nothing to beg
For, I've got no reason at all to pretend
Anymore that it's fine that we're dead Hear that friends?
You're all I've got left so just listen again

He said his goodbyes now it's my turn to cry
Where is my comfort? I've run out of time
To wonder when I will see my love again
Now that's over, we've come to the end
I've got nothing to say, I've got nothing to beg
For, I've got no reason at all to pretend
Anymore that it's fine that we're dead Hear that friends?
Guess I might as well crumple up, now that I am dead
