Lyrics
I don't like to lie
I can't lie this way
Don't tell me your secrets
'cos I'm the wrong person
I know that you hate
When I tell you the truth
But if you have told me this
I would never forgive you
This is hard to understand
Someday I will lose my conscience
This is not so good for us
I would never believe in you
When you face your enemy
They say: you have to lie
That's the price we pay
'cos we have to survive
So they always seems to
Keep us under control
But this apparent apathy
It's what they need to know
This is hard to understand
Someday I will lose my conscience
This is not so good for us
I would never believe in you
"If we suspect that a man is lying,
We should pretend to believe him;
For then
He becomes bold and assured,
Lies more vigorously,
And is unmasked."
(Arthur Schopenhauer)
