Song Meaning of “Обман – Live” by Aria
Verse 1:
In your life I’ve been the one, who you thought you could depend on
A faithful friend who could make it through all the pain and the suffering
But I have committed a sin and decided to deceive you from within
But I couldn’t bear to see the hurt that I brought
Chorus:
Oh, I’m living a lie, oh, I’m living in a lie
Trying to escape the truth for so long, too long
I don’t know what to do, the truth will catch up to me soon
But I’m so scared of what it will mean
Verse 2:
It’s not what I wanted, but it’s what I had to do
To keep you believing it was me and not someone else
But I couldn’t keep up the farce and I feared that the truth would tear us apart
I had to admit to myself that I had to let go
Chorus:
Oh, I’m living a lie, oh, I’m living in a lie
Trying to escape the truth for so long, too long
I don’t know what to do, the truth will catch up to me soon
But I’m so scared of what it will mean
Bridge:
Even though the lies hurt us both
I can’t walk away from it all
I’m stuck in an endless cycle, trying to fix it all
Chorus:
Oh, I’m living a lie, oh, I’m living in a lie
Trying to escape the truth for so long, too long
I don’t know what to do, the truth will catch up to me soon
But I’m so scared of what it will mean
This song speaks to the feelings of guilt and dread that someone may feel after lying to those closest to them. The speaker is vocalizing the reality that they can’t keep up the farce any longer and must face the consequences of their actions. Although it may bring pain and hurt to themselves and to the person they deceived, the speaker needs to come to terms with the truth and accept the fact that there is no going back from this.
