The song you know as most of my songs are a rock ballads maybe some heavy metal maybe some country and blues mixed in there probably more blues and rock than anything. I'm sure that we all know someone who lies to your face and smiles at the same time they're pretty convincing and a lot of times you believe them. They're the ones that stab you in the back, and keep on smiling. I guess I can relate because I was one of those people at one point in my life. When I was an addict, well I still am, but not active in my addiction, I would ask people for things, con people for things most of the time money, and all with a smile on my face. I'd be a great actor if I wanted to put my mind to it. When I moved to Hollywood in 1982 to be a writer and an actor and a comedian, the only person I lied to the most was myself. But there were lots of other people along the way that I fooled. But in the end I was the fool. None of my goals that I set for myself when I moved out there were reached, because of my active addiction. So this song is really about someone who wants told me that I'm the best liar they have ever seen or been around or heard. But I wasn't fooling her and she was the one who really started me on the path of taking a look at myself. Today I don't lie as much, but I will admit that it's tough sometimes not to fall back into the Trap. I do thank God that I'm clean and sober today and I try to be as honest with God as I can be on a daily basis. My advice to anyone who reads this or hopefully wants to buy these lyrics is to be honest with yourself, and say, this is the best goddamn song I've ever read. LOL
