Lies
Beautiful Bodies Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Were taking off, off, off to the dark side

Gonna grab my bow and arrow
I'm never, never gonna be your white bride

Shoot you down like a wounded sparrow

Lies, Lies, Lies, Lies, Lies
Lies, Lies, Lies, Lies, Lies

You've made off, off, off like a bandit
But the heist has quickly gone awry
And the spoils have been soiled by your habits

Not another girl in your game of lies

Baby, traitors burn alive

And you'll never make it

Only one survives
In this game of

Lies, Lies, Lies, Lies, Lies
'Cause I can see them in your eyes
Lies, Lies, Lies, Lies, Lies
And loving you is suicide

We're headed out, out, out from the shadows

Gonna purge you from your feeble thrown

Prep the town for the sound of the gallows
'Cause the bastards surely will atone

I hear your voice
But it's only making noise
Hear your voice
But it's only making noise

Baby, traitors burn alive

And you'll never make it

Only one survives
In this game of

Lies, Lies, Lies, Lies, Lies
'Cause I can see them in your eyes
Lies, Lies, Lies, Lies, Lies
And loving you is suicide

Baby, traitors burn alive
And you'll never make it
'Cause this is the last time
That I'm ever gonna take it
Time to say goodbye
'Cause you're overrated





Only one survives
In this game of lies

Overall Meaning

The song "Lies" by Beautiful Bodies is about deceit and betrayal in a relationship. The lyrics depict the frustration and anger that comes from realizing that the person you love is not who you thought they were. The singer takes a strong stand for herself, stating that she is not going to be anyone's "white bride" and she will shoot down those who betray her like a wounded sparrow. She recognizes the lies that have been told to her and declares that loving this person is like committing suicide.


The chorus of the song emphasizes the recurring theme of lies, with the repetition of that word nine times. The singer warns that she can see the lies in the other person's eyes and that only one person will survive in this game of lies. The bridge of the song takes a violent turn, with the singer purging the other person from their "feeble throne" and preparing the town for the sound of the gallows, indicating a desire for revenge.


In summary, "Lies" is a powerful rock song that explores the darker side of relationships, where trust is broken and betrayal is a constant threat. The song is a strong proclamation of self-worth and the need to stand up against those who would deceive and manipulate.

I will take down those who deceive just as a hunter would take down a wounded bird


Lies, Lies, Lies, Lies, Lies
Deceit and false truths are being repeated over and over again


You've made off, off, off like a bandit

I will no longer tolerate being lied to


Time to say goodbye
It's time to move on


'Cause you're overrated
You are not as impressive or important as you think you are
