I Am Lying
Deceptive Dialogues: Unveiling the Hidden Struggles in 'I Am Lying'
Lyrics
Carol and i had such a good talk about her trip with dan
Discussing a conversation with Carol about her trip with Dan.
she said ""sometimes it's such a struggle, but we do the best we can""
Carol expresses the difficulties in the relationship but emphasizes doing the best they can.
And even though it was a harmless drink with an old friend
Referring to a harmless drink with an old friend, possibly implying innocence.
you know that honesty won't play
Despite the innocence, acknowledging that honesty may not be well-received.
I am lying, I am lying
Admitting to lying.
it's just easier that way
Justifying lying as an easier option.
She said ""he makes everything awkward -- you're heard this one no doubt
Quoting Carol about Dan making situations awkward, expressing frustration.
i bring it up over and over, but i gotta let it out""
Acknowledging the repetition of bringing up the issue but feeling the need to express it.
And even though i know you really don't think there's a thing
Knowing that the listener may not believe there's a problem, but raising the issue anyway.
it just might rattle you today
Suggesting that discussing the issue might disturb the listener.
I am lying, I am lying
Reiterating the admission of lying.
it's just easier that way
Reaffirming that lying is chosen for the sake of simplicity.
It seems ridiculous to turn the topic just to skirt around you
Commenting on the absurdity of avoiding the real issue and confronting it indirectly.
call the horrors and the heartless out again
Suggesting a need to confront difficulties and challenges.
I am lying, I am lying
Restating the admission of lying as a coping mechanism.
it's just easier that way
Reiterating that lying is chosen for the sake of convenience.
