Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Bend til I break
Give you everything you
Ya take and you take
For goodness sake
Stop
Won't you have a heart
Like you did from start
'Cause I'm here in the dark
You say I never loved you
Said I never cared
Telling all your friends that I was never there
Oh ,no that ain't fair
Now I'm calling you a Liar
Tell me who gon' love ya harder
It's a losing game when you're keeping score
When we don't even know why we're fighting
Look at what you started
Sick of walking on a wire
It's like we're sinking to the bottom
Feels like we're punching underwater
I feel waves, waves, waves
Pushing me away
I feel waves, waves, waves
Time
Time to be honest
I thought we were all in in
Now it feels foreign
You're asking for space
Go
Go on without me
Go on and doubt me
Throw it all in my face
You say I never loved you
Said I never cared
Telling all your friends that I was never there
No, that ain't fair
Now I'm calling you a liar
Tell me who gon love ya harder
It's a losing game when your keeping score
When we don't even know why we're fighting
Look at what you started
Sick of walking on a wire
It's like we're sinking to the bottom
Feels like we're punching underwater
I feel the waves
Pushing me away
I feel the waves
Don't know why
I try so hard to be
What you need
Now I'm calling you a Liar
Tell me who gon' love ya harder
It's a losing game when you're keeping score
When we don't even know why we're fighting
Look at what you started
Sick of walking on a wire
It's like we're sinking to the bottom
Feels like we're punching underwater
I feel waves
Pushing me away
I feel the waves
The song Liar by Karl Michael is a poignant expression of the feeling of betrayal, confusion, and frustration that one experiences during a troubled relationship. The lyrics suggest that the singer has been bending or compromising too much to make the relationship work, but instead of appreciating it, the partner keeps taking and questioning their love and commitment. The singer pleads for some understanding, some empathy, and some effort on their partner's part to salvage the relationship. But all they get in return is accusations of not loving, caring, or being there for the partner, which they refute, stating that it's unfair and untrue.
The chorus is the most powerful and catchy part of the song where the singer declares their truth, calls out the partner's lies, and announces their intention to break free and move on. They expose the unhealthy pattern of keeping score and fighting without even knowing why, and the feeling of being pushed away by the turbulent waves of the relationship. The song offers a relatable and empowering message for anyone struggling in a similar situation, to stand up for themselves, and not settle for less than they deserve.

You instigated this fight
Sick of walking on a wire

Our issues are pushing us further apart
Time to be honest
We need to have an open and truthful conversation
I thought we were all in in
I believed we were fully committed to each other
Now it feels foreign
Our relationship now feels foreign and unfamiliar
You're asking for space
You're requesting distance and time apart
Go
Fine, leave me
Go on without me
Carry on with your life without me
Go on and doubt me
Go ahead and question my love for you
Throw it all in my face
You're using my mistakes to hurt me
It's a losing game when you're keeping score
Our relationship shouldn't be a competition
Now I'm calling you a liar
I'm done with your lies
Don't know why
I don't understand
I try so hard to be
I put in so much effort to make you happy
What you need
But it never seems to be enough for you
