Glen Hansard
Lies
[Verse 1]
I think it's time we give it up
And figure out what's stopping us
From breathing easy and talking straight

[Verse 2]
The way is clear if you're ready now
The volunteer is slowing down
And taking time to save himself

[Pre-Chorus]
The little cracks they escalated
And before we knew it was too late
For making circles and telling lies

[Chorus]
You're moving too fast for me
And I can't keep up with you
Maybe if you'd slow down for me
I could see you're only telling
Lies, lies, lies
Breaking us down with your
Lies, lies, lies
When will you learn?

[Instrumental Break]
[Pre-Chorus]
The little cracks they escalated
And before we knew it was too late
For making circles and telling lies

[Chorus]
You're moving too fast for me
And I can't keep up with you
Maybe if you'd slow down for me
I could see you're only telling
Lies, lies, lies
Breaking us down with your
Lies, lies, lies
When will you learn?

[Outro]
So plant the thought and watch it grow
Wind it up and let it go
