Another tragedy has left you devastated in a state of hating what you can’t see or what you don’t believe. The question lingers and your mind just can’t figure out why our flame keeps burning on, when all of us share the same wounds that bleed.
Don’t walk away this time tonight. You know, you’ll never find the answer if you don’t kill the noise inside. Don’t walk away this time tonight, the answer you will find. Just take a walk, it’s waiting behind the lie.
You long for that deafening whisper to call your name, to relieve the suffering in your mind. It isn’t too late to find out, in silence, the quiet rings out. It isn’t too late, it’s never too late. Please come back.
Don’t walk away this time tonight. You know, you’ll never find the answer if you don’t kill the noise inside. Don’t walk away this time tonight, the answer you will find. Just take a walk with me here behind the lie.
It’ll be alright. Everything is going to be alright. Love is waiting. (don’t be afraid, just jump right in. embrace this.)
Just wait, be still, you’ll find out why you haven’t heard replies from letters that you’ve sent with tears when you cried. Don’t walk away this time tonight, cuz you’ll get your replies. The answer you’ve been dying to hear inside.
This song is about an individual who's distorted view of Christianity has pushed him further into indecision and disbelief. He's looking for answers in the right place but finds a twisted darkness in place of the comfort he pursued. The title "Behind the Lie" refers to the truth of our faith having been covered by a blanket of confusion.
