Sordid Liar Lyrics

Album: Drift

Carelessness

Time and time again you have misled me

Thievishness

You've exploited me 'cause I was so fragile

Breach of faith

You have shredded all my certainties

Loneliness

A fortress in which I could take refuge

To regain myself

Day by day

A constant shame

Guilt and grief suffocate my will

To resist this agony

Nightmares come to recall the past

All of this ‘cause I’ve been a sordid liar

Blinded by greed

My grudges

So reasonless

My envy, what an idiocy

Deception

Betrayed trust

My egoism, my cold void

I know

All of that is wrong, there's no excuse

Vanity

Clouding my perception with desire and want

I've lied not to seem like a hollow man

Thinking I would not hurt anyone

Day after day I feel

A costant shame

Guilt and grief suffocate my will

To resist this agony

Nightmares come to recall the past

All of this ‘cause I’ve been a liar

Guilt and grief suffocate my will

To resist this agony

Nightmares come to recall the past

All of this ‘cause I’ve been a liar

Anguish burns my tormented mind

As if I fell into a fatal fire

When I was young my old man told me

Never lie to yourself

Now seize his words

And learn not to betray who follows you

Let them look into your heart
