Lyrics

You told me this,

You made certain statements to me

You told me that

You made other statements to me

You try to tell me,

You attempt to inform me

Tell me where it's at

Tell me the truth or the real situation

You said you loved me,

You claimed to love me

I can see through that

I can see that it's not genuine or sincere

Lies, lies, lies

Deceptions and untruths

You left me hangin',

You abandoned or betrayed me

Hangin' from a limb

Left me in a difficult or precarious situation

You said you loved me,

You claimed to love me, but then chose someone else

Then you left with him

This caused pain or harm to me

Lord, you did it to me,

A plea to a higher power acknowledging the betrayal

I see it in your eyes

I can perceive the deceit in your gaze

Lies, lies, lies

Repeated emphasis on falsehoods and deception

Tell me baby,

Questioning why time was invested in the relationship

Why you take my time

You derive pleasure from wasting my time

You get a thrill off

You find enjoyment in manipulating my thoughts

Playing with my mind

This caused pain or harm to me (repeated theme)

Lord, you did it to me,

I can perceive the deceit in your gaze (repeated theme)

I see it in your eyes

Addressing the betrayal seen in the eyes

Lies, lies, lies

Repeated emphasis on falsehoods and deception
