I Lied
Bryan Rice Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I never knew it could feel this way
I never thougt you would walk away
When it was over you you called late nights
And you said "Do you miss me?"

Second thought haunting you at night baby
Do you regret that you let it go?
If you doubt what did was right

You should know

[Chorus:]
That I lied
When I said I'm over and done with you
I lied
When I said it didn't hurt
I lied

I've got a piece of you in my soul
I really tried, I was left in cold
I didn't know it could be this strong
Now I can't let it go

[Chorus:]
And I lied
When I said I'm over and done with you
I lied
When I said it didn't hurt
I lied

I lost my course
And my life's too short to deny
How much you mean to me
I'll leave my pride,
Yeah I'll let it slide
And I'll let you know

[Chorus:]
That I lied
When I said I'm over and done with you
I lied
When I said it didn't hurt
I lied

I lied

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Bryan Rice's song "I Lied" express remorse after a failed relationship. The singer admits that he thought he had moved on, but the reality is that he never got over his ex-lover. He admits in the first verse that he never thought he would feel this way and didn't expect his partner to walk away. However, his ex-lover continued to keep in touch, asking if he missed him. The second verse reveals that the singer is also haunted by second thoughts and considers whether he made the right decision to let him go. He admits that his feelings for his ex-partner are still strong and that he cannot let go of the past, even though he tried.

The chorus emphasizes the theme of the song, where he repeatedly admits that he lied when he said he was over his ex-partner, he lied when he said it didn't hurt, and he lied about moving on. The bridge of the song also sees the singer acknowledging that he has lost his way, and his life is too short to deny his true feelings. He then decides to leave his pride aside and confesses to his ex-partner that he lied about being over them.

Overall, the song's lyrics reveal the pain of heartbreak, where even when one tries to move on, some deep emotions may be difficult to let go of.

Line by Line Meaning

I never knew it could feel this way
I had no clue that love could be so intense and overpowering

I never thought you would walk away
I never expected you to leave me and break my heart

When it was over you called late nights
After we broke up, you would call me late at night

And you said "Do you miss me?"
And you would ask me if I missed you

Second thought haunting you at night baby
You are now filled with regret and second thoughts

Do you regret that you let it go?
Are you filled with regret for letting go of our relationship?

If you doubt what did was right
If you are second guessing your decision

You should know
You need to know the truth

That I lied
I was not truthful

When I said I'm over and done with you
When I said I was completely over you
