Description
A read a young girls quote once that said "Bad boys lie to get inside your bed but good boys lie to get inside your head". I don't know if she was quoting someone else but I thought that's a very heavy thing for such a young girl to be saying. It lead me down a road to come up with this dark cowboy song along an old theme and made me ask the question of myself "are all men really liars?"
Lyrics
Oh Oh I've heard it said that good boys don't lie Oh Yeah I've heard it said that good boys don't lie I've heard it said, I've heard it said That good boys don't lie Good boys don't lie I've heard it said, I've heard it said That good boys don't lie Good boys don't lie I've heard it said, I've heard it said That bad boy's lie to get inside your bed I've heard it said, I've heard it said That bad boy's lie to get inside your bed Oh you play the victim O' so well That she could never ever tell What you carry in your mind Is selfish and unkind Boy you play the victim O' so well That she could never ever tell What you carry in your mind Is selfish and unkind I've heard it said, I've heard it said That bad boys lie to get inside your bed I've heard it said, I've heard it said That good boys lie now to get inside your head Some say sorry's a sign of weakness For some it is their excuse But to live without forgiveness Is not a thing that I would choose Some say sorrow's a sign of weekness For some it is their excuse But if I tell my lies long enough Then I'll believe their truth (I don't keep no secrets from, you don't keep no secrets from me, It's the world that we're living in, It's the world that we're living in) They say that good boys don't lie
