I Lied - Intellectual

[Verse 1: Ben Schneider]

I swore that I'd become a better man for you and I tried

Tried to change my ways and walk the line you follow

I bore a flame that burned a thousand suns for you, but it died

Told you I could never love somebody else, but I lied

Mm-mm, mm-mm, I lied

I told you I'd be coming back again for you, but I'm not

Going way out where the world will never find me

I made a claim that I would dance until we're bones with my bride

Told you I would never leave you all alone, but I lied

Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh

[Verse 3: Allison Ponthier, with Ben Schneider]

I read your letter in the morning by the lake and I cried

They were tears of joy, my chains are finally broken

I made a vow to stand beside you till the day that I die

Told you I could never live without your love, but I lied

Mm-mm, mm-mm, I lied
