Schizma Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Like a slab in the back
Should've known better, now it's too late
You and your friends you never cared
Why does it always have to end the same fuckin' way?
All of these lies - why waste your time?
Sold your soul, all of this shit, still can't believe
Liar!
Where's your pride?
I've had enough of your little war
Stop all the lies, do your own thing
Deal with your life
Spreading your bullshit wherever you are
We're back from the dead - forever hardcore
Don't waste your time
All of these lies - why waste your time?
Liar!
Sold your soul, all of this shit, still can't believe
Liar!
Where's your pride?
The lyrics to Schizma's song Liar describe the singer's frustration towards someone who has consistently let them down through lies and deceit. The first line, "I still can believe it happened this way," suggests that the singer is struggling to come to terms with what has happened. They feel betrayed, hurt and disappointed, hence their description of feeling "like a slab in the back." The singer reflects on a situation that they could have handled differently, knowing that they "should've known better" and blaming themselves for having put trust in the liar.
The chorus repeats the title of the song - "Liar!" - and acts as a direct attack on the person in question, as the singer accuses them of having "sold [their] soul" and being unable to take pride in their actions. The lyrics suggest that the liar is not alone in causing damage; their friends are also held accountable for having played a role in allowing the situation to escalate.
