The Truth of a Liar Lyrics

Allow what's done to preach new insight to your life
Hindsight is perfect vision
The past is easiest to see

Clear a path, Stand aside
We're carrying the torch now
Clear a path, Stand aside
We're carrying the torch now
Clear a path, Stand aside
There's no stopping us
Clear a path, Stand aside
We're carrying the torch now
Clear a path, Stand aside
There's no stopping us

You think you're everything to everyone
Go ahead, Partake in it, Justify it
Become engulfed in it
It will eat you alive

This is not a one way road
You're headed for the dead end
This is not a one way road
You're headed for the dead end

You might think you're everything to everyone
Well pardon me if I intrude
You might think you're everything to everyone
You're not a perfect man in a perfect world
Look at where your ignorance has brought you
All this will be buried, Like the fall of Rome

You can't let your ignorance exploit you
You will come crashing down

The truth hurts (The truth hurts)
The truth hurts (The truth hurts)
The truth hurts (The truth hurts)
But denial's what will kill you

All that you loved, all that you treasure, will pass with time
Blinded by the inability to see beyond flesh and blood
Blinded by the inability to see beyond flesh and blood

Shifting blame with a log in your eye
Insisting that a string tied to your limbs
Is what's to blame (Is what's to blame)

Suck it up and bite the bullet

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
