Song Lyrics

"The First Lie"

by Foolish Things
Album: Let's Not Forget The Story

I figured out wh-y
My heart's as cold as night
I can't live in the day
There's a shadow in the way
And he won't die
The person I've called me
He binds me with his chains
Of twisted libert-y

And I know myself, well enough to know
I don't want to anym-ore
Y-eah
And I find myself, wasted as I am
Living for the cause of me
Cause of m-e

~Chorus~
So leave me here to die and, even if I'm crying
Don't let me, don't let me live another day
Then raise the shell of m-e
Back to dependency
And don't let me, don't let me live another day
Alone

I bit the first l-ie
That I was all I'd need
And now I've reaped the forest
That grew up from that s-eed
And it's called pr-ide
The loss of who I'd be
If I had just remained, in sweet humility
Y-eah

~Chorus~

(Repeat 2nd verse)

So leave me here to die and, even if I'm crying
Don't let me, don't let me live another day
Then raise the shell of m-e
Back to dependency
And don't let me, don't let me live another day
~Chorus~
