Omar Rodríguez-López - If I Told You the Truth I Would Be Made of Lies lyrics

Losing all the limbs I ever owed To a woman of small minded talents Plucking the wings of a flowerless heart I endured the lies for far too long All the naked confessions were in vain Only to be seen by the runt of a queen Of a small brittle heart From a small brittle part of a small brittle heart If she told me the truth I would have hunted her down If she told me one truth I would have hunted her And left her out to dry Taking dead admissions from my skin Since the day she grew gray and colder And taking the switch from a powerless light Younger skies may have turned to dust Yes those naked confessions were in vain At least they were seen by that runt of a queen Of a small brittle heart From a small brittle part Yes a small little heart If she told me the truth I would have hunted her down And if she told you the truth from the start You would have laughed yourself to sleep And if she told me one truth I would have hunted her And left her out to dry Dry, left her out to dry She says "If I told you the truth I would be made of lies" "If I told you the truth I would be made of lies" "If I told you the truth I would be made of lies" "If I told you the truth I would be made of lies" She tells herself I have the body of a deer But only when it turns to slime You're missing all your teeth my dear Don't think that I'll be fooled this time Nothing belongs to me So take what you want 'cause it means nothing Belongs to me So take what you want because it means nothing If she told me the truth I would have hunted her down And if she told you one truth from the start You would have laughed yourself to sleep If she told me one truth I would have hunted her And left her out to dry Dry, left her out to dry She says "If I told you the truth I would be made of lies" "If I told you the truth I would be made of lies" "If I told you the truth I would be made of lies" "If I told you the truth I would be made of lies"
