Artist/Band: Aimee Mann
Lyrics for Song: Living A Lie
Lyrics for Album: Charmer [2012]



You can see yourself in the side mirror

Tossing your hair

If no one is there

Why do you care

Though I let you think there was no witness to

All of your crimes

I knew what you were:

A climber who climbs



I'm living a lie

You're living it too

Cause I live it with you

I'm living a lie

A lie I can't tell

So we wait for a crack in the shell



No one bears a grudge like a boy genius

Just past his prime

Gilding his cage

One bar at a time

For every open arm there's a cold shoulder

Waiting to turn

People to blame

Bridges to burn



I'm living a lie

You're living it too

Cause I live it with you

I'm living a lie

A lie I can't tell

So we wait for a crack in the shell



A girl comes around at a time when your ground

Is as shaky as leaves on a tree

Creating for you a persona or two

Or an out-and-out mythology

Now there's too many cooks but you like how it looks

When they're bowing and calling you "boss"

But the powers that were, were invested in her

And now winning means taking a loss



I'm living a lie

You're living it too

Cause I live it with you

I'm living a lie

A lie I can't tell

So we wait for a crack in the shell
