Wahre Lügen
Juliane Werding Lyrics

The lyrics to Juliane Werding's song "Wahre Lügen" are about finding comfort in someone's company, even if it means hearing lies just for the sake of feeling better. The singer asks the other person to take away the darkness and shadows from their life, and to enter their safe space, which happens to be a metaphorical lake. The singer then asks the other person to tell them "true lies" or "wahre Lügen," which implies that they would rather hear lies that bring them comfort than harsh truths that might make them feel worse. The second verse continues the theme of needing comfort and strength, asking for the "grayness" of their everyday life to be lifted and for their soul to be strengthened while their body becomes lighter. The request for "true lies" persists throughout the song, with the singer hoping to melt the ice within themselves and to be written on with poetry. In the end, the singer asks the other person to help them overcome their fears, remove obstacles in their path, and to keep telling them more "true lies."
