Looking For Liars
Chasing Shadows of Deception
Lyrics
Well it's too late now
Expressing a realization that it is too late to reverse a situation.
To go back somehow
Reflecting on the impossibility of returning to a previous state or decision.
Move along
Encouraging movement forward, suggesting a need to let go.
I'm already gone
Stating personal departure or separation from a situation or relationship.
How can you deny?
Challenging someone to acknowledge a truth evident in the speaker's eyes.
The truth in my eyes
Pointing to the authenticity of the speaker's words and intentions.
Twisted words
Referring to the distortion of words or messages, possibly through misunderstanding.
Oh is that what you heard?
Questioning if the listener's interpretation aligns with the intended message.
Another late night, misguided desire
Describing a situation of misguided desire during a late night.
You get what you get when you go looking for liars
Conveying the consequence of seeking dishonesty when searching for answers.
All the one's before
Referring to past relationships that caused more pain.
Hurt you even more
Asserting the belief that previous experiences inflicted greater harm.
That's what you say
Acknowledging pain but still holding on to the situation.
You hang on anyway
Emphasizing persistence despite knowledge of potential hurt.
No use for the truth, consumed with desire
Rejecting the value of truth, prioritizing desire over reality.
You get what you get when you go looking for liars
Reiterating the consequence of seeking dishonesty when searching for answers.
The truth be damned when we need what we need
Acknowledging the disregard for truth when personal needs are at stake.
We learn to pretend not to see what we see
Describing a learned behavior of ignoring evident truths for convenience.
We want to hear words that we know just aren't true
Expressing a desire to hear comforting lies rather than harsh truths.
Been looking for answers for things that we do
Highlighting the futile search for answers to questionable actions.
The cold bitter truth is not warm like desire
Comparing the discomfort of truth to the warmth of desire.
It turns out that I'm just like you where all looking for liars
Revealing a shared trait of seeking deception, implying commonality.
Where just looking for liars
Reiterating the continuous pursuit of deception in various contexts.
