about

'Lies' is an easy-listening guitar driven song, that combines the influences of R&B and reggae feels. The lyrics are poetic, reflective, vulnerable and deeply honest; borne out of the realization that things wouldn't be quite the same, without the 'color' that love adds to life.

lyrics

Ooooh aaaahh aaaaah, yeah

If I told you I could be without you lady
If I said I'm sure that I would be alright
If I told you that I made it here without you
That would be a lie, it would be a lie
If I told you I'm complete without you lady
And that alone I stand the chance of
Staying alive
What about if I used all the words I know
You'd know they're all lies
You'd know they're all lies yeah

Oh, it would be confusion
Just another story, a hopeless illusion
I would rather not keep lying to myself
At all

It amazes me how I'm made for you only
How I see my future looking in your eyes
I'm convinced that if I had to live without you
Life would be a lie

Oh, it would be confusion
Just another story, a hopeless illusion
I would rather not keep lying to myself
At all
Oh, it would be confusion
Just another story, a hopeless illusion
I would rather not keep lying to myself
At all, at all, no

If for a moment, I stood without you
I'd fall baby, baby
And somehow, if I could paint the truth
yeah
I would paint it for all to see
Cause I'd paint you baby
I'd paint you Baby
mmmhh
