Lake of Lies
Drowning in Deception: Sophia Bidges' 'Lake of Lies' Revealed
Lyrics
You like the drama
You are attracted to and enjoy dramatic situations.
And love the games
You find pleasure in playing games, especially those involving emotions.
You like thrill
You seek excitement and enjoy the adrenaline rush.
And love the fight
You thrive on conflict and enjoy engaging in fights or arguments.
Jump in the water that's what he said
A suggestion to take risks or face challenges, possibly metaphorical.
But I won't swim in a lake of lies
Refusing to participate in a situation filled with deception and falsehoods.
Dark hair and those deep blue eyes
Describing physical features of an idealized person.
The perfect boy you made yourself to seem
The person presented themselves as perfect, possibly deceiving others.
But as I lay here and I drown
Feeling overwhelmed and emotionally submerged in sorrow.
In the tears you made me cry oh
Expressing the pain caused by the actions of the person in question.
I know it's my fault for believing you
Taking responsibility for believing in false promises or assurances.
When everyone warned you wouldn't come through
Others warned of the person's unreliability, acknowledging that warning.
And as I fall away
Distancing oneself from the deceptive words or promises.
From everything you say
Rejecting the deceptive narrative and its impact on one's life.
Jump in the water that's what he said
Reiteration of the suggestion to face challenges or take risks.
But I won't swim in a lake of lies
Reaffirming the refusal to engage in deceitful situations.
Perfect picture yet a broken home
Contrasting an idealized image with the reality of a broken home.
You paint your image with what you want to be
Creating a false image to match one's desired identity.
But as I lay here and I drown
Experiencing emotional drowning due to inflicted pain and tears.
In the tears you made me cry
Continuing to suffer from the emotional consequences of deception.
I know it's my fault for believing you
Acknowledging personal responsibility for trusting the deceptive person.
When everyone warned you wouldn't come through
Recalling warnings from others about the unreliability of the person.
And all I wanted was love
Expressing a desire for love that may have been unfulfilled.
All I wanted was love
Repeating the longing for love, emphasizing its importance.
But I guess you're just too
Suggesting that the person in question is emotionally distant or unfeeling.
Cold cold cold
Reiterating the perception of the person as emotionally cold.
I guess you're just too cold
Affirming the belief that the person is emotionally distant.
Jump in the water that's what he said
Repeating the suggestion to face challenges or take risks.
But I won't swim in a
Refusing to participate in a deceptive environment, emphasizing "lake."
Lake
Emphasizing the rejection of deceit with the mention of a "lake."
Of
Highlighting the theme of falsehood and deception with the word "lies."
Lies
Concluding with a strong emphasis on the concept of deception and falsehood.
