Lie
Breaking Walls, Finding Truth: Stelth Ulvang's Journey in 'Lie'
Lyrics
This town has the eyes that are pushin me back into the hall
This town's atmosphere or environment is pressuring me to retreat into isolation.
Serious hypocrite bullies live within our walls
In this community, there are serious, hypocritical bullies residing among us.
A sneaky conception, and a child made sneaker to boot
A deceptively sneaky idea or plan, and a child made more cunning or stealthy.
I gotta find a better direction if I'm gonna learn to live with you
I need to find a better path if I want to coexist harmoniously with you.
I don't wanna lie no I don't wanna lie, don't wanna lie awake at night
I wish to avoid falsehoods and not stay awake at night due to deceit.
I don't wanna lie no I don't wanna lie, don't wanna lie awake
Reiterates the desire to avoid lying and staying awake at night because of it.
I don't wanna lie no I don't wanna lie, don't wanna lie awake at night
Expressing the avoidance of lying and sleeplessness due to deceit.
I don't wanna lie no I don't wanna lie, don't wanna lie awake
Reemphasizes the wish to evade lying and the resulting sleeplessness.
A town it made our river and the river it made the cut
The town's impact formed our river, which, in turn, shaped a division or wound.
Relaxing water that will spoil the life within us
Peaceful waters that may spoil the vitality within us.
A breath that jumps within me didn't start there it never left
A feeling or sensation within me that didn't originate within but persists.
If it comes in around me oh you'd think i would get rid of it but
Despite its presence, there's reluctance or an inability to rid myself of it.
I don't wanna lie no I don't wanna lie, don't wanna lie awake at night
Repetition of the wish to avoid lying and its consequential sleeplessness.
I don't wanna lie no I don't wanna lie, don't wanna lie awake
Restating the desire to refrain from lying and the associated sleepless nights.
I don't wanna lie no I don't wanna lie, don't wanna lie awake at night
Expressing the aversion to lying and the resulting sleepless state.
I don't wanna lie no I don't wanna lie, don't wanna lie awake
Reiterating the wish to avoid lying and its resulting sleeplessness.
Like a snake made of foil that is wiggling around my belly
Describing a sensation akin to a wriggling, discomforting presence in the belly.
Like a belly made of acid and a esophagus made of yarn
Comparing the belly to an acidic state and the esophagus to a fragile material.
Like a scorpion made to fit inside pinatas
Metaphorically likening a threatening presence to a scorpion hidden inside pinatas.
Oh ill beat it, and I'll swallow (woo)
A determination to overcome this discomfort and absorb it.
I don't wanna lie no I don't wanna lie, don't wanna lie awake at night
Repetition of the wish to avoid lying and its subsequent sleeplessness.
I don't wanna lie no I don't wanna lie, don't wanna lie awake
Reiterating the desire to refrain from lying and the resultant sleeplessness.
I don't wanna lie I don't wanna lie, don't wanna lie awake at night
Expressing the aversion to lying and its associated sleeplessness.
I don't wanna lie no I don't wanna lie, I don't wanna lie awake
Final affirmation of the desire to avoid lying and stay free from sleeplessness.
