John Lies by Kalie Shorr Lyrics

[Verse 1]
He's got eyes that'll lead you to water
But I wound up on an old dirt road
And I woke up in the valley of the shadow of death
Without a truth to call my own

[Chorus]
So how did I wind up here?
How did I get so far?
How did I really get nowhere at all?
And everyone else will tell me the truth
But John lies and there's nothing I can do, oooh, oooh, oo-oo-oo-oh

[Verse 2]
He ain't got no conscience or no right from the wrong
There ain't no voice in his he-e-ead
And if he really loved her thеn why would he be
Lying herе in my be-e-ed?

[Chorus]
So how did I wind up here?
How did I get so far?
How did I really get nowhere at all?
And everyone else will tell me the truth
But John lies and there's nothing I can do, oooh, oooh, oo-oo-oo-oh
[Bridge]
And I'm really just as pathetic as him
For letting him string me alo-o-ong
And I can admit I'm a liar too
For telling myself that this ain't wro-o-o-ong

[Chorus]
So how did I wind up here?
How did I get so far?
How did I really get nowhere at all?
And everyone else will tell me the truth
But John li-i-ies and there's nothing I can do, oooh, oooh, oo-oo-oo-oh

[Outro]
He's got eyes that'll lead you to water
But I wound up on an old dirt ro-o-oad
