Lie to Me
Ingersol Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tell me that you need me
Say that you
You will not mistreat me
Tell me that you wish I could stay
Stay with you
Build me up
Hold you up
But just until you're fine without me
Tell me you think I'm everything
Everything
‘Cause I found my cloud
And I'm not coming down
And I shot my heart
But I'm still runnin' round
I'm a song in your head
And I'm not coming out of you now
I'm a girl
But I will show no mercy
I'm not small
But god I feel so tiny
Tell me that you're a waste of time
Waste with me
‘Cause I found my cloud
And I'm not coming down
And I shot my heart
But I'm still runnin' round
I'm a song in your head
And I'm not coming out of you now
Wear a grin
But just until you leave me
Hold it in
I'm only lying sweetly
Tell me you think that I'm the best
Best for you
‘Cause I found my cloud
And I'm not coming down
And I shot my heart
But I'm still runnin' round
I'm a song in your head
And I'm not coming out of you now
The song "Lie to Me" by Ingersol is a thought-provoking and emotional piece that speaks to the desires for emotional validation and fulfillment of individuals. The lyrics suggest that the singer is searching for someone to lie to them, to tell them what they want to hear, to build them up until they feel great, and to waste time with them. The music's mood is reminiscent of someone shyly and vulnerably confessing their deepest desires to a trusted friend, hoping that they will understand and accept them.
The singer is quick to point out their strengths while confessing their insecurities, telling their partner to lie to them and claim that they need them. The singer wants to be told that they will not be mistreated, that they wish they could stay together, that they are everything, and that they are the best fit for their partner. The singer's vulnerability and desire for emotional fulfillment are reflected in the lyrics and the changing tempo of the music. The last stanza of the song suggests that even though the singer is aware of their partner's insincerity, they cannot resist the temptation of being enshrined in their memory forever.

Lie to me
Please deceive me with your words
Tell me that you need me
Say that you depend on me
Say that you
You will not mistreat me
Promise that you will not hurt me
Tell me that you wish I could stay
Stay with you
Express that you desire my presence
Build me up
Elevate my self-esteem
But never for eternity
Nevertheless, do not offer enduring support
Hold you up
Provide security for you
But just until you're fine without me
Only until you no longer need me
Tell me you think I'm everything
Flatter me by conveying that I mean the world to you
‘Cause I found my cloud
I found my comfort zone
And I'm not coming down
I am unwilling to leave this place of solace
And I shot my heart
I deliberately wounded my feelings
But I'm still runnin' round
Despite this, I am still living a fast-paced lifestyle
I'm a song in your head
I am always on your mind
And I'm not coming out of you now
You cannot shake me off
I'm a girl
I identify as female
But I will show no mercy
However, I will not be kind or compassionate
I'm not small
I am significant
But god I feel so tiny
But I often feel insignificant
Tell me that you're a waste of time
Admit that you are not worthwhile
Waste with me
But still spend your time with me
Wear a grin
Put on a smile
But just until you leave me
But abandon this facade when you depart from me
Hold it in
Suppress your true feelings
I'm only lying sweetly
I am just telling pleasant lies
Tell me you think that I'm the best
Tell me that you consider me the greatest
Best for you
Most suitable for you

You can always get an old phone as you're camera, I got a lg v10 on eBay for 140$ and the camera shoots at 4k, instead of buying an expensive camera, and use some cheep LED's as lighting.
