In The Shadow Of A Lie

I lead a rich rewarding life, a wife, a home, a car

But generally you can find me down in some dim lit bar

I hold all the pleasures of the world, this fact I can't deny

But I'm living, yes, I'm living in the shadow of a lie.


My wife's first husband and myself were on a fishin' trip

He was in our rowboat, me on shore, when I saw my partner slip

I hellish thing took hold of me and I delayed my rescue dash

Still I need my lover husband had finally breathed his last.


I took his body back to town and restrained a happy smile

When they said there'd be a hearin', wouldn't even be a trial

Then a fine upstanding citizen like me to do no wrong

And the walls between me and my love would finally soon be gone.


Now just when my world glows brightest and warm thoughts run through my head

A chilling darkness hovers like a demon over head

And sometimes the guilt inside me reigns so strong I hope to die

For I'm living, is it living, in the shadow of a lie...
