C Am C
Lies, lies, lying little beast, Lying little man on the corner of the street
C Am C
Singing "Why, I can't come out to play, Can't come out and say that I'm afraid of what they'll say
C G Am F Am C
They're saying, "Oh, no! You'll never be a-lone! Never hear the sound of someone calling you home."
C Am C
I flew farther than I knew, Father, did you know that I don't need to tell the truth?
C
Cause my lies take me far away, Take me to a place where everyone will know my name
C G Am F Am C
Screaming, "Oh, no! You'll never be a-lone! Never hear the sound of someone calling you home."
C
Calling you home
(humming)
C Am F C, Am C F C
C
Oh Lord, whatever did I say? Whatever made me think that this was all okay?
C
No one held me to the flame, The hell if I could take the dark from my face
C G Am F Am C
Screaming, "Oh, no! I'll always be a-lone. I'll never hear the sound of someone calling me home."
C
Calling me home
Calling me home
Calling me home
(ah)
C Am F C, Am C F C
C Am F C
Lies! Lies that I couldn't see! I couldn't see that the liar was me!
Am C F C
And so I flew away with myself, I was the beast all alone in my hell
(repeat)
F C
I was the beast all alone in my hell
I was the beast all alone in my hell
I was the beast all alone in my hell
