about

Track 5 off of Demons, a concept album themed around the Seven Deadly Sins. Liar is the song for pride.

lyrics

[Verse 1]
Why should I care
What you think
You must not know
Who I am
The fuck are you anyway

No teeth to bare
So useless
You’re all bark
And I’m all bite
You’re nothing so walk away

[Chorus]
My God
Do they know I just
Wanna be like them so I must
Keep it together
My demons all tethered
Fight like a dog
And make myself better

So scared
But I can’t afford to care
I don’t know if I got what it takes
I feel like a liar
And I’ll keep on lying straight to my grave

[Verse 2]
Again and again
What you don’t comprehend
Is with each song I’m breaking my mold

I am far from my prime
I’ll outgrow you in time
So don’t you get too comfortable (woah)

[Chorus]
My God
Do they know I just
Wanna be like them so I must
Keep it together
My demons all tethered
Fight like a dog
And make myself better

So scared
But I can’t afford to care
I don’t know if I got what it takes
I feel like a liar
Feel like a liar
I feel like a liar
And I’ll keep on lying straight to my grave

[Bridge]
A giant sleeps within my soul
No one but me knows of what he’s capable
I’m only human but I’ve got
Passion consuming every thought
An atom bomb set to explode
As long as I believe it

[Chorus]
My God
Do they know I just
Wanna be like them so I must
Keep it together
My demons all tethered
Fight like a dog
And make myself better

So scared
But I can’t afford to care
I don’t know if I got what it takes
I feel like a liar and I’ll keep on lying
Feel like a liar and I’ll keep on lying
I feel like a liar
And I’ll keep on lying straight to my grave
