Lies

[Verse 1]
Some lie about who they love
Some lie about the truth
Some lie to save their lives
Some lie about their youth

[Verse 2]
Some lie about age and beauty
The conquest of sex
Most lie about the night before
A woman lies for a party dress

[Pre-Chorus]
I've lied for a stolen moment
I've lied for one more clue
I've lied about most everything
But I never lied to you

[Chorus]
And we lie, lie, lie
On a streetcar named desire
Oh we lie, lie, lie
For that sweet bird of youth
I could be great like Tennessee Williams
If I could only hear something
That sounds like the truth

[Verse 3]
Some lie in the face of death
Some lie about their fame
Some kneel and lie to God
Some lie about their name

[Verse 4]
Some lie in words and speeches
With every living breath
The young lie with their guitars
The old lie for a little respect

[Pre-Chorus]
I've lied to lie with danger
I've lied for a drug or two
I've lied about most everything
But I never lied to you

[Chorus]
And we lie, lie, lie
On a streetcar named desire
Oh we lie, lie, lie
For that sweet bird of youth
I could be great like Tennessee Williams
If I could only hear something
That sounds like the truth

[Pre-Chorus]
I've lied for a stolen moment
I've lied for one more clue
I've lied about most everything
But I never lied to you

[Chorus]
And we lie, lie, lie
On a streetcar named desire
Oh we lie, lie, lie
For that sweet bird of youth
I could be great like Tennessee Williams
If I could only hear something
That sounds like the truth
