In The Shadow Of A Lie |
I lead a rich rewarding life, a wife, a home, a car |
But generally you can find me down in some dim lit bar |
I hold all the pleasures of the world, this fact I can’t deny |
But I’m living, yes, I’m living in the shadow of a lie |
My wife’s first husband and myself were on a fishin' trip |
He was in our rowboat, me on shore, when I saw my partner slip |
A hellish thing took hold of me and I delayed my rescue dash |
Still I knew my lover husband had finally breathed his last |
I took his body back to town and restrained a happy smile |
When they said there’d be a hearin', wouldn’t even be a trial |
That a fine upstanding citizen like me could do no wrong |
And the walls between me and my love would finally soon be gone |
Now just when my world glows brightest and warm thoughts run through my head |
A chilling darkness hovers like a demon over head |
And sometimes the guilt inside me reigns so strong I hope to die |
For I’m living, is it living, in the shadow of a lie… |
