Lie to Me
Anneke Van Hooff Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It doesn't matter anymore, what you said before,
'cause anyone can see, that you lie to me,
why do you lie to me?
It doesn't matter anymore, I've been hurt before,
but now you're breaking me
'cause you lie to me.
What do I do now, now our love's come to an end?
for me to be your friend.
I have always thought, that some things were meant to be,
we belong together, always you and me.
But you lie to me, baby you lie to me.
It doesn't matter anymore, what you said before,
'cause anyone can see, that you lie to me,
why do you lie to me?
It doesn't matter anymore, I've been hurt before,
but now you're breaking me
'cause you lie to me.
What do I do now, now the tables have been turned.
I've been through too much before, you think I should have learnt.
I have always thought, that some things were meant to be,
we belong together, always you and me. (x3)
You lie to me, why do you lie to me?
But you lie to me, baby you lie to me.
It doesn't matter anymore, what you said before,
'cause anyone can see, that you lie to me,
why do you lie to me?
It doesn't matter anymore, I've been hurt before,
but now you're breaking me
'cause you lie to me.
The lyrics of Anneke Van Hooff's song "Lie to Me" are about a painful breakup caused by the discovery of lies. The first verse expresses the hurtful feeling of betrayal after realizing that the person who once claimed love is lying. The lyricists confirm that what the partner said before does not matter since they now know that the person lies to them. The repetition of the phrase "you lie to me" emphasizes the hurt and anger that the lyricist feels. From the second verse, the lyricist indicates that this is not their first heartbreak and that they thought that they had found what was meant to be. However, the discovery of lies results in them questioning everything they once thought was true.
The chorus is a reflection of the intensity of emotions the lyricist is going through. They feel that their partner is not only hurting them, but they are also breaking them. They are bewildered by the fact that someone they trusted could hurt them over and over again. The song's final verse talks about how the tables have turned, and now the lyricist finds themselves on the other side of the breakup. They struggle with moving on from a love that they thought was meant to be. The song's theme is relatable to anyone who has experienced heartbreak or betrayal, emphasizing the importance of honesty in relationships.
