    One of Plow Monday's most popular songs, it appears on their first album, Blank, as well as their newest record, Second Glance Appeal. It's an absolute roller coaster ride of a song, grabbing you from the very fist downbeat, sending you through twists and turns of melody and rhythm, and ends by thrusting you into the heart of the most basic emotion of need.

    Story Behind the Song
    This song is actually written about two girls. The chorus was written about a girl Jonathan longed after for years, but couldn't get her to believe that being together would be a good idea.
    But there were no words for any verses. Just a chorus.
    Eventually, Jon started dating someone else. When that relationship ended abruptly, chance encounters between him and this girl made it obvious that there were some feelings between the two of them that everyone was afraid to bring up. The subject material fit the pre-existing chorus, and one of the band's best songs was born.

    Lyrics
    Lies
    Words by Jonathan English
    Music by Jonathan English and Plow Monday

    She said I'm in your head again
    You told her just the other day
    I thought I'd felt it but you won't let me see it
    Your face is calm, it doesn't show
    You keep yourself in closed control
    But I see you look at me
    And I see you want to
    I see it in your eyes

    Three days ago I thought I'd cry
    Two touches short of knowing why
    One kiss away from falling back into you babe
    Do you believe you're beautiful
    Find out what you've been waiting for
    Once choice away from being right
    You will if you don't believe the lies

    (Baby don't believe them)
    Cause you're beautiful, you're good to me
    You're everything I want you to be
    And I believe in you, can you believe in me?
    What we could be if you don't believe the lies

    Only a fool goes rushing in
    Just say those words to me again
    If you could look me in the eye, I'd believe you
    Four weeks of heaviness we bought
    I paid the toll to get across
    But you didn't come with me, no
    You didn't come with me
    I think you let me see enough
    To keep me guessing, make it tough
    Feels like you hurt me, babe
    Is that what you wanted?
    Cause first you take a stance of attack, and then you take it back
    Can't stand the fact that I believe in that
    Keep me further from the truth you don't think I see
    Where to begin?
    I start to think you'd rather believe
    The lies
