From the recording Dear Significant Other
Lyrics
Well you may need a liar
Now and then to know the truth
What will you do when you get lonely
What will you do when no one's there
What will you do when you're the only
You're the only one who cares
Will you pretend that nothing matters
Will you pretend that you're so cool
Will you satisfy the anger that you feel
By turning cruel
Well you may need a liar
Now and then to know the truth
And you may need to wonder what to do
Well you may catch on fire
As you burn through reckless youth
Yes you may need a liar now
To help you see the truth
What will you do if nothing makes sense
Of the way you feel inside
Will you throw away your incense
And dismiss your spiritual guides
What will you do if in an instant
You forget you have a past
And begin to see the future
Like you wanted at long last
Well you may need a liar
Now and then to know the truth
And you may need to wonder what to do
Well you may catch on fire
As you burn through reckless youth
Yes you may need a liar now
To help you see the truth
Someone to lie to you
