Story Behind the Song
I wrote half the song on a cheap acoustic, and half of it on my red "VH" Squire. Featuring no DISTORTION at all, except for the ending solo.
Just read the lyrics, it's my most personal to date, there is nothing left to say...
I took my time to arrange this one, watch out for the basslines, and the analog synths.
My intention was to write a gloomy acoustic piece, it turned out to be something worse...

Lyrics
The Notorious Lier That Has Lost His Touch
The notorious lier that has lost his touch is losing his balance on the edge
and the notorious lier that has lost his touch is living inside my mirror
reflecting the truth, absorbing the lies,
the lies becomes you, you know, and the truth hides in your shadow
Step right in, grab a chair, have a seat
Vomit all over my face, I don't care
Nothing you or anyone else can do will hurt me anymore
My worst enemy is myself, and that's just the way it is
It's hard to gain someones trust, when you have based your life on lies
It started when I was real small, if I wanted to be alone,
I just lied to my friends, and it has continued to this day
I lie for my own gain, and I lie to avoid hurting people
I can't help it, it's in my human nature,
because I have always, always lied
At a period in my life I started to shoplift things
I never got caught in two years, and I stole more and more things,
and all the time I denied it
Then the day came, I got caught with three CDs on me, and you know what?
I told everyone, my family, my girlfriend,and the friends I trusted,
that it was the first time I tried to shoplift anything
They believed me, why shouldn't they?
The Truth is that I stole at least 4 items a month,
in a period of two years, and noone knows it to this day
This is my biggest secret, and now I'm writing it down
A funny thing about this period,
I have never ever bought a package of rubbers,
I've stolen them all, or I've received them for free,
I believe in free sex for all you know
I used to come home in the middle of the night,
drunk as fuck, and lied my parents right in their eyes
They think that I started to drink when I was 17,
when they introduced it for me big time.
Ok, I puked on a christmas-tree when I was 15,
but that's the only time they had seen me drunk before the age 17,
so that doesn't count, it was free booze so what the fuck
The truth is that I started to party hard at age 14,
and this is when I smoked my first cigarette too
At age 18 they figured it out,
when I smoked in front of them on my birthday,
so I managed to fool them for four years...
The only thing that I haven't lied about is drugs,
and that is one thing I'm really proud of
I get all my needs covered with my music,
the flowing alcohol, and good sex
I don't need shit that slowly destroys you mind
Talking about sex...
Mother nature has been good to me,
my sexual needs are out of this world
You can call me over-sexual,
and I guess that's why I've been addicted to porn since day one
I've only been truly faithful to one person in my entire life,
and I've had quite a few up till now,
so I'm no stranger to infedelity either
It's amazing what you can do to the persons you love,
when you're just horny as fuck
Nothing else matters,
you're willing to do almost anything to cum, come inside
Don't know how many relationships I have wasted for others,
and myself, because of my overactive dick,
and I really don't want to know either
I've been betrayed, used, mentally raped, but I have been just as worse, just as worse
I don't want to have your forgiveness, I just want you to know the truth
I won't regret a thing, this is my life and this is what I have done
This IS the truth. Finally
I can keep on writing about all the lies for a lifetime, but this is it,
this is my final confession, there is nothing left to really say...
