Still a Liar
Confessions in the Fog: Still Chasing Redemption
Lyrics
I’m sitting here, at a half past six
I am currently seated, and it's half past six.
Way out somewhere in the sticks
I am in a remote or rural location.
And it’s quiet now as the fog rolls in
The surroundings are quiet as fog is rolling in.
And it fades to grey till it’s clear again
The environment transitions from unclear (fades to grey) to clear again.
Been thinking on, all the ways I did you wrong
I've been reflecting on the ways I've mistreated you.
(And I know that, it’s getting late)
Recognizing that it's getting late.
In a different light does it all play out the same?
Wondering if the same events play out differently when viewed in a different light.
And you say people, they don’t change
You assert that people generally don't change.
And I still like the way the sun, lights that horizon on fire (on fire)
I still appreciate the way the sun sets the horizon on fire.
And when the day is done, yeah honey I’m still a liar
Despite that, I admit I am still dishonest.
But I just called you to say…
I called you for a specific reason.
That I was thinking about you today
To convey that I've been thinking about you today.
In the same old chair and to tell the truth
I am in the same familiar place, being truthful.
Well I had some wine and some whiskey too
I've consumed both wine and whiskey.
And that tired cliché, is a funny phrase
Acknowledging that using clichés can be amusing.
In a lonely hour that I washed away
I have washed away a cliché in a lonely hour.
But it’s all I got, I’m just clinging to the thought
All I have left is a thought that a loose tongue could influence you.
That a loose tongue could have you swayed
The challenge is that whenever I speak, it doesn't come out the right way.
The only trouble is, every time I open my mouth
Expressing the difficulty in conveying thoughts without missteps.
It never comes out the right way
Highlighting the struggle of articulating thoughts accurately.
No, it never comes out the right way
Reiterating the difficulty in verbal expression.
And I still like the way the sun, lights that horizon on fire (on fire)
I still admire the beauty of the sunset.
And when the day is done, yeah honey I’m still a liar
Despite that, I confess I am still not truthful.
And I just called you to say…
I called you to communicate something.
That I miss you
I want to express that I miss you.
For some reason I still do
For some inexplicable reason, I still feel the absence of you.
But I miss you
Reiterating the sentiment of missing you.
And I don’t know why I do
Expressing uncertainty about why I still miss you.
And I was thinking about you today
I've been contemplating your existence today.
