Girard - Tears and Lies Lyrics

Tears and Lies
(A trio about the emotional turmoil of betrayal)

[Voice 1]
I thought we had it all, I thought you were mine,
But you were weaving stories, crossing every line.
The truth came crashing in, like a wave too strong,
All the love I thought we had-was I that wrong?

[Voice 2]
I saw the signs but turned away,
I hoped the doubts would fade one day.
But every whisper, every stolen glance,
Was breaking us apart, killing our last chance.

[All]
Tears and lies, tearing me apart,
Every secret tearing at my heart.
I gave you love, but you gave me pain,
Left me standing in the rain.
Tears and lies, you played your game,
Now nothing between us will be the same.
Broken promises, cold goodbyes,
I'm drowning in these tears and lies.

[Voice 3]
You said you'd always stay, you swore you'd never leave,
But now I know those words were just meant to deceive.
You held me close, while you turned away,
Leaving me in shadows, alone to pay.

[Voice 1]
How could you let me fall so deep?
While you were sowing secrets, I was losing sleep.
Now I'm standing here with nothing but the truth,
Wishing I could take back every part of you.

[All]
Tears and lies, tearing me apart,
Every secret tearing at my heart.
I gave you love, but you gave me pain,
Left me standing in the rain.
Tears and lies, you played your game,
Now nothing between us will be the same.
Broken promises, cold goodbyes,
I'm drowning in these tears and lies.

[Voice 2 & 3]
I'm done with the crying, I'm done with the pain,
You'll never break me like this again.
I'll rise from the wreckage, I'll find my way,
But the scars you left, they'll always stay.

[All (harmonizing)]
Tears and lies, tearing me apart,
Every secret tearing at my heart.
I gave you love, but you gave me pain,
Left me standing in the rain.
Tears and lies, you played your game,
Now nothing between us will be the same.
Broken promises, cold goodbyes,
I'm drowning in these tears and lies.

[Voice 1]
Tears and lies, you'll fade with time,
[Voice 2 & 3]
But the truth will free this heart of mine.
[All]
Tears and lies, I'll say goodbye...
To all your tears and lies.
