Liar
Antoine Bradford Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I found, all I need in those beautiful eyes
But why do I feel so neglected
Why does this feel so wrong?
I thought that you would heal my sadness
But you just added on
And I knew that you were trouble from the start
And I fell hard and now my heart is scarred
Cause I still caved into you
Oh, oh, ohhh yeah I still caved into you
Oh, oh, ohhh yeah I still caved into you
Liar, you told me that you'd be good for me
But fire, is all I see dancin' around me
What did I do to deserve this
Why did you treat me bad?
I'm picking up the pieces you left me
Puttin' my heart intact
And I knew that you were trouble from the start
But I still caved into you
And I fell hard and now my heart is scarred
Cause I still caved into you
Oh, oh, ohhh yeah I still caved into you
Oh, oh, ohhh yeah I still caved into you
Jesus can You fix the mess
That I have made inside my heart oh
Jesus can You fix the mess I made
The lyrics of Antoine Bradford's song Liar talk about a relationship that started on a high note but eventually went sour. The singer of the song was lonely until they met someone on a summer night, and they found all they needed in those beautiful eyes. However, they soon feel neglected, and things start feeling wrong. The singer had hoped that the relationship would heal their sadness, but instead, it added to it. The lyrics suggest that the singer knew the person they got involved with was trouble from the start, but they still caved into it and fell hard. Now their heart is scarred, and they feel like they were lied to.
The song goes on to describe the singer's feelings of betrayal and asking why they were treated badly. They are picking up the pieces that were left of them and trying to put their heart back together. They pray to Jesus to fix the mess they've made inside their heart. The song's message seems to be about the dangers of ignoring red flags in a relationship and being dishonest with oneself. It suggests that sometimes we know that someone is not right for us, but we still go ahead and fall for them, ultimately ending up hurt.
