Direct Hit! – I Told You A Lie lyrics

[Verse]
It's kind of awkward to admit that I've been less than forthright
When I implied that I was ready to die
Because my conscience weighs so heavy on my shoulders and mind -
I'm coming clean my friend, I told you a lie

[Chorus]
In fact, the truth is I've only used this
To understand why we’re all here
It’s time to dismiss it might be Christmas
That’s just ridiculous from what I can hear

[Bridge]
Because the fact is I've been waiting for my love to return -
They locked him up for crimes he didn't commit
And all I wanted was to keep myself alive to the end
So I could have a chance to see him again

[Verse]
And so I led your sorry soul off to your death in the woods
And I deprived you of a chance to pretend
That this apocalypse was more than just us reaching the end
Of every story, every conflict withstood

[Chorus]
In fact, the truth is I've only used this
To understand why we’re all here
It’s time to dismiss it might be Christmas
That’s just ridiculous from what I can hear

[Outro]
He said his goodbyes, it's my turn to cry -
Where is my comfort? I've run out of time
To wonder when I will se my love again
Now that's over, we've come to the end
I've got nothing to say, I've got nothing to beg
For, I've got no reason at all to pretend
Anymore that it's fine that we're dead - Hear that friends?
You're all I've got left so just listen again

He said his goodbyes now it's my turn to cry
Where is my comfort? I've run out of time
To wonder when I will see my love again -
Now that's over, we've come to the end
I've got nothing to say, I've got nothing to beg
For, I've got no reason at all to pretend
Anymore that it's fine that we're dead - Hear that friends?
Guess I might as well crumple up, now that I am dead
