Lie To Me
♫ 12 Stones Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The ashes full of lies
I gave my soul to you
You cut me from behind
Nowhere to run and nowhere to hide
You're scared of the truth, I'm tired of the lies
'Cause who I am, is where you wanna be
Don't act like an angel
You fallen again
You're no super hero
I found in the end
So lie to me once again
And tell me everything will be alright
Lie to me once again
And ask yourself before we say goodbye
Well goodbye
Was it worth it in the end
You said you were there for me
You wouldn't let me fall
All the times I shared with you
Were you even there at all?
Nowhere to run and no where to hide
You're scared of the truth, I'm tired of the lies
'Cause who I am, is where you wanna be
Don't act like an angel
You fallen again
You're no super hero
I found in the end
So lie to me once again
And tell me everything will be alright
Lie to me once again
And ask yourself before we say goodbye
Well goodbye
Was it worth it in the end
Why'd you have to up and run away
A million miles away
I wanna close my eyes and make believe
That I never found you
Just when I put my guard away
It's the same old story
You left me broken and betrayed
It's the same old story
Don't act like an angel
You fallen again
You're no super hero
I found in the end
So lie to me once again
And tell me everything will be alright
Lie to me once again
And ask yourself before we say goodbye
Well goodbye
Was it worth it in the end
Lie to me once again
It's the same old story
Lie to me once again
It's the same old story
Was it worth it in the end
The lyrics of "Lie To Me" by 12 Stones tell a story of betrayal and heartbreak. The singer trusted and gave their soul to someone who ultimately cut them from behind, leaving them with nowhere to run and no one to turn to. They question whether the times they shared were even real or if they were just a facade constructed by the other person. The chorus repeats the message that the singer wants to be lied to once again, even though they already know that the other person is not an angel or superhero, and everything will not be okay. They ask if it was worth it in the end for the other person to cause them so much pain and heartbreak.
The lyrics of "Lie To Me" reveal a sense of frustration and confusion felt by the singer. They feel that they have been wronged and lied to and are left with no closure or explanation. The repetition of the line "same old story" highlights the fact that this is not the first time the singer has experienced this kind of betrayal - it is a recurring pattern. The line "who I am, is where you wanna be" suggests that the other person may envy the singer's life or status, even though they have caused them harm.
Line by Line Meaning
Our candle burns away
Our relationship is slowly fading away
The ashes full of lies
Our past is filled with deceit and betrayal
I gave my soul to you
I trusted you unconditionally and gave everything to you
You cut me from behind
You hurt me when I least expected it
Nowhere to run and nowhere to hide
We cannot escape from the truth
You're scared of the truth, I'm tired of the lies
You are afraid to confront the truth while I am exhausted from your deceit
'Cause who I am, is where you wanna be
You envy me and want to be like me
Don't act like an angel
Don't pretend to be innocent or good-hearted
You fallen again
You have made the same mistake again
You're no super hero
You cannot save anyone or make everything right
I found in the end
I discovered the truth about you
So lie to me once again
Deceive me one more time
And tell me everything will be alright
Assure me that everything is okay when it's not
And ask yourself before we say goodbye
Reflect on your actions before we part ways
Well goodbye
Farewell
Was it worth it in the end
Was all the pain and deception worth it?
You said you were there for me
You promised to support me
You wouldn't let me fall
You would keep me from harm
All the times I shared with you
All the moments we had together
Were you even there at all?
Did you even care or participate at all?
Why'd you have to up and run away
Why did you leave suddenly?
A million miles away
Completely out of reach
I wanna close my eyes and make believe
I want to pretend that everything is okay and forget the truth
That I never found you
That we never met
Just when I put my guard away
Just when I let down my defenses
You left me broken and betrayed
You hurt me deeply and broke my trust
Lie to me once again
Deceive me one more time
It's the same old story
You keep repeating your mistakes
