Lies
Unveiling the Mask: Embracing Impatience and Self-Deception in Temptation's 'Lies'
Lyrics
Don't know what I feel
Uncertainty about emotional feelings
I can't feel my face
Feeling emotionally numb or detached
I can't change my ways
Difficulty in altering behavior or habits
Maybe I'm just too impatient
Suspecting impatience as a personal trait
Wait, Wait, Wait
Expression of anticipation or a request for time
Tell me just where is my love
Seeking clarification about the presence of love
Tell me that I am enough
Seeking validation or affirmation of self-worth
Tell me when I am not wasted
Desiring to know moments of clarity or sobriety
Lie to me, lie to me
Requesting to be deceived or misled
Tell me I won the lottery
Desiring to hear extreme positivity or success
I can't run from this side of me
Feeling trapped or unable to escape certain traits
I can not feel, love
Expressing inability to experience love
Love
Reiteration of the theme of love
Don't know what I feel
Reiteration of uncertainty about emotions
I can't feel my face
Reiteration of feeling emotionally detached
I can't change my ways
Reiteration of difficulty in changing behavior
Maybe I'm just too impatient
Reiteration of suspecting impatience as a personal trait
Wait
Emphasizing the need for patience or delay
Wait
-Woah
Expression of intense emotion or surprise
Lie to me
Reiteration of the desire to be deceived or misled
Lie to me
-Lie to me, lie
Reiteration of the request to be deceived or misled
Lie to me, lie
-Lie to me, lie
-Lie to me, lie
-Lie
Final emphasis on the plea to be lied to
