lyrics

I saw it lying there, lying in a casket,
It kept pretending it was me,
I’d know it anywhere,
I was so afraid I’d catch it,
Never thought it would catch me,

I saw a light,
I swear I saw, but there’s no signal,
Just static on a screen,
Another line,
Call and response, but there’s no answer,
The voice I heard was mine,

Trick of the light,
I swear I saw it moving out of the corner of my eye,
A little lie,
The kind that keeps you honest,
The kind that keeps you up at night,

Thought I was fine,
But then I stared at my reflection,
And I was not alone,
It wasn’t time,
But they threw dirt down on my casket,
And marked it with a stone,

A little lie can make things right,
A little lie can’t make it true,
A little lie won’t bring it back,
A little lie is all I have.

When not writing third-person bios about himself, Ryan Knowles plays the bass guitar and piano with some level of proficiency and haphazzardly stumbles around the guitar.

It's your call. ... more
