The Lie Songtext / Lyric

She thought the marriage was over

And she needed a shoulder to cry on

She turned to another

And for a night found a lover



But it felt so wrong

The next month they reconciled

But every time she saw him smile

She knew she couldn't tell him 'bout that night

She prays to God, he never finds out about the lie



Like a pain almost too much to bare

The guilt will always be right there

Ripping away at her heart

Some would say she's wrong to keep



The secret from him

But she knows the truth

Will tear his world apart

She's gonna live and die with the lie






There little boy turned five the other day

At the party she never seen a face so happy

She worries as the years go by

Will he wonder why he don't look like his daddy?



She sees him playing in the yard

The laughter sometimes hits her hard

The bond they share makes her start to cry

And times like that she'd give anything

If she could change the lie



Like a pain almost too much to bare

The guilt will always be right there

Ripping away at her heart

Some would say she's wrong to keep



The secret from him

But she knows the truth

Will tear his world apart

She's gonna live and die with the lie



They never spoke about that night

They shared so long ago

But everyday they pass at work

And she wonders if he knows



Like a pain almost too much to bare

The guilt will always be right there

Ripping away at her heart

Some would say she's wrong to keep



The secret from him

But she knows the truth

Will tare his world apart

She's gonna live and die with the lie



She's gonna live

And die with the lie
