Текст песни The Lie

Thirty odd years before

On some grass covered wasteland

A boy is observed on his own

Who is watching and playing

He's just made a pact with himself

If that rabbit over there

Doesn't go down yonder hole

Let the ground beneath him disappear

And it runs on past

Fades away in the distance

But the earth doesn't move

Nobody thought that it would

He makes bets and pledges

Again and again

Sometimes he wins

Sometimes he loses no matter

Some might call him stupid

To tempt fate in this way

But he really does believe in it

Each time the rules are made

There he goes again

If I never fall for a lady

Then let me be famous

Let me be wise

Now this one I like

It has a different ring

Instead of something trivial

That's a serious undertaking

So I say to you

This time, I think I'll act

I'll be a witness to this contract

I'll settle everything

So if you should ever fall in love

You'll not only not be wise

You'll lose your memory and most of your mind

And I've never been known to lie

And now, he's not really sure

If he truly heard someone

So what if he did, he thinks

For nothing will happen

Though he seems to shrug it off

He won't play that game again

Forever morning after the night before

When even one drop would cause pain

And the years go by

The incident is all but forgotten by one

But the other who lives it

Remembers that innocent fun
