The Lie Lyrics


Everybody's doin' it
Everybody's goin' out tonight
All your friends are feelin' it
Whatever it is that makes you feel all rightEverybody knows that anythin' goes
And everything you want
Well is just across the line
Step into the flow, go all the way tonightDon't believe the lie, don't buy in
To what they sell you
It'll only make you cry, I've been there
And I'm here to tell youWhat you got inside your soul
Deep down you know the truth won't hide
Don't believe the lie
Don't believe the lieHere comes the morning sun
Shining down on what you've done
And all you feel is empty
And you don't know why it felt like so much funHere comes that voice again
And is acting like your friend
With a whisper in your ear

"You fell too far this time"Don't believe the lie, don't buy in
To what they sell you
It'll only make you cry, I've been there
And I'm here to tell youWhat you got inside your soul
Deep down you know
The truth won't hide
Don't believe the lie
No, don't believe the lie, yeahLike a thief it will come to steal
And kill and destroy
Oh, but you don't have to let it take your joy
AnymoreOh no, you were meant for so much more than this
You were meant for so much more than this
I promise this, I promise this
You were meant for so much more
So don't give in, no don't give in
When you stand your ground you won't stand aloneDon't believe the lie, don't buy in
To what they sell you
It'll only make you cry, oh, I've been there
And I'm here to tell youWhat you got inside your soul
Deep down you know
The truth won't hide
So don't believe the lie
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no
Don't believe the lie, yeahYou were meant for so much more than this
You were meant for so much more than this
I promise this, I promise this
You were meant for so much more
