Littered with Ghosts

Lyrics
Oh dear liar.

The heart has its way And in truth a deceiver it lies to you straight
Highlighting the deceptive nature of the heart and its ability to mislead with honesty.
We let it form the legs to stand
Acknowledging the formation of a foundation or support system.
And in its breath we rise, and fall
Describing the impact of the heart's influence on the rise and fall of emotions or situations.
For we are stationed in silence
Emphasizing a state of stillness or stagnation.
We are as naked, as the the day we were born
Comparing vulnerability to the nakedness experienced at birth.
Oh dear liar

The lies are relayed
Pointing out the continued propagation of lies.
And though we've called on them to save us they take us apart
Expressing the ineffectiveness of lies when relied upon for salvation, resulting in separation.
And they're away
Indicating the departure or escape of the lies.
And over time
Referring to the passage of time.
we are littered, we are littered with ghosts
Describing the accumulation of haunting memories or regrets over time.
For invited we've lain with the heartless we host

Come sit friend dear liar
Inviting the liar to witness unfolding events.
Let us watch it unfold

There, in the rubble

There, helpless, we wait

And sit sadly as two
Depicting a shared experience of sadness between two individuals.

Oh dear liar
