[length: 04:30]
[00:25.64]Disappear from you hometown
[00:28.24]Go and find the people that you know
[00:37.84]Show them all you good parts
[00:40.84]Leave town when bad ones start to show
[00:50.38]Go and wed a woman
[00:53.44]A pretty girl that you’ve never met
[01:02.41]Make sure she knows you love her well
[01:05.87]But don’t make any other promises
[01:15.22]The weight of lies will bring you down
[01:18.32]And follow you to every town
[01:21.34]Cause nothing happens here that doesn’t happen there
[01:27.76]So when you run make sure you run
[01:30.97]To something and not away from
[01:33.89]Cause lies don’t need an aeroplane to chase you anywhere
[01:53.38]I once heard the worse thing
[01:55.92]A man could do is draw a hungry crowd
[02:04.92]Tell everyone his name, pride, and confidence
[02:10.18]But leaving out his doubt
[02:18.08]I’m not sure I bought those words
[02:20.70]When I was young I knew most everything
[02:30.10]These words have never met so much to anyone
[02:34.56]As they now mean to me
[02:43.03]The weight of lies will bring you down
[02:46.06]And follow you to every town
[02:49.12]Cause nothing happens here that doesn’t happen there
[02:55.25]So when you run make sure you run
[02:58.45]To something and not away from
[03:01.68]Cause lies don’t need an aeroplane to chase you down
