I took a big sip from the kettle before it boiled over The light was coming up and I was nestled up against your shoulder And I don't remember how or exactly when I left for good All I know is I was lost somewhere deep inside my neighbourhood No, I wouldn't be lying About the things that I'm trying I wouldn't be lying About the things that I'm trying, trying, trying I took a good look into the mystery of all things dying When the soul leaves the body and the spirit soars to keep from crying I walked along the path and I came across a golden door Leaving all my cares behind I won't need them there anymore No, I wouldn't be lying Something about what you said just doesn't sit right It's strange to find out what the truth is all about I've been to the heavens with you and all the way down But I never looked at it from where you came from I was foolish to think that we could be All I wanted was for us to see When we're clear it's hard to imagine Why one could be short and the other a distraction Now that the time is finally over Let's assume that we can get through That we're love first and lie second That we're friends and not haters No, I wouldn't be lying
