Chad Brock - The Lie lyrics

She thought the marriage was over

And she needed a shoulder to cry on

She turned to another

And for one night found a lover but it felt so wrong

The next month they reconciled

But every time she saw him smile

She knew she couldn't tell him about that night

She prays to God he never finds out about the lie

Like a pain almost too much to bear

The guilt will always be right there

Ripping away at her heart

Some would say she's wrong to keep

The secret from him but she

Knows the truth would tear his world apart

She's gonna live and die with the lie

Their little boy turned five the other day

At the party she'd never seen a face so happy

She worries as the years go by

Will he wonder why he don't look like his daddy

She sees them playing in the yard

Their laughter sometimes hits her hard

The bond they share makes her start to cry

In times like that she'd give anything

If she could change the lie

Like a pain almost too much to bear

The guilt will always be right there

Ripping away at her heart

Some would say she's wrong to keep

The secret from him but she

Knows the truth would tear his world apart

She's gonna live and die with the lie

They never spoke about that night they shared so long ago

But every day they pass at work and she wonders if he knows

Like a pain almost too much to bear

The guilt will always be right there

Ripping away at her heart

Some would say she's wrong to keep

The secret from him but she

Knows the truth would tear his world apart

She's gonna live and die

She's gonna live and die with the lie
