Time passes quickly for our lady of the hour   She brushes her long blonde hair   From her face only to find a tear   But she don't know why she's been crying      She looks inside herself   To maybe find an answer   But she's willingly distracted   By the man who like's her glitter   She says, "fool, I ain't gold."      She don't even know she cries 'cause she's so tangled up in lies      In her head she plays a game   Pretending that she's not the same lady who is cheating on her husband   With a man she hardly even knows   She says, "ignorance is bliss."      But when he asks her name   She must fumble for an answer   She's been called so many   But now she can't remember   So she just makes up another      And she don't even know she cries 'cause she's so tangled up in lies      Now the dirty deed is done   She heads into the bathroom   She washes her hands in the sink   And thinks it could clean her conscience   If only she could find one      And slowly she turns and heads   For the door as if this were all a dream   She has seen her sweet husband's face   But only like a fleeting glimse   Of all those bridges she's been burning   All those bridges she's been burning      And she don't even know she cries   It should come as no surprise   'cause she's so tangled up in lies
