Lies
Spare Bricks Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There was a time when I believed
That words got a sense
My life was based on
Good way of living
But now you show me that
I was completely wrong
And now I gotta change
My way of thinking
Your words are not the rule
You’re trying to take control
You’re a liar you’re faking smiles
But you’ve to look at yourself
You are misleading your life
And I will not trust in you
Anymore, anymore, anymore
You play with our lives
You’re getting me edgy every time
Just to save your dirty face
You’re ready to sell your ma
Gave you the best of me
But I have no payback
Now look for someone else
That can really like me
You’re a liar you’re faking smiles
But you’ve to look at yourself
You are misleading your life
And I will not trust in you
Anymore, anymore, anymore
There was a time when I believed
That words got a sense
My life was based on
You play with our lives
You’re getting me edgy everytime
To save your dirty face

You’re ready to sell your ma
You’re a liar You’re a liar You’re a liar
