If You Lied

Take one step back
Get the picture in to view
The focus is clear and makes no
Decision
The jury is hung by the guilt of
Omission

You lied
If you lied I could think that it's alright
I could pretend that I don't see much
Of anything

Take one step back
Get the picture in to view
The focus is clear and makes no
Decision
The jury is hung by the guilt of
Omission

I called on you today for those things
You want to say
The sentiment is honest but the child
In me would rather you lied

If you lied I could think that it's alright
I could pretend that I don't see much
Of anything

Give that much to me I'll be indebted
I don't want to be
But if the truth be known I'd rather you
Lied
