"Liar" was named the 64th best hard rock song of all time by VH1. It was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance. Rollins Band performed the song at the 37th Grammy Awards Ceremony.
"Liar" is a song by Rollins Band and the lead single from their fourth full-length album, Weight, released in 1994. It was the album's only charting single and is one of the group's best known songs.
Upon release, the "Liar" video gained heavy airplay on MTV. This led to it appearing as part of the Beavis and Butt-head episode "Liar! Liar!", which aired on July 15, 1994. In the episode, Beavis becomes excited about the chorus, repeating the word "Liar!" in the same way he typically says "Fire! Fire! Fire!". Butt-head comes to the conclusion that "lying rules."
The video edit of "Liar" was featured in the song's music video and features a different vocal track and slightly different lyrics in the opening section. The song's lyrics are from the perspective of a serial liar who alternates between declarations of sympathy and friendship on the one hand, then repeatedly gloating celebrations of his deceptions. Directed by Anton Corbijn, the video itself features alternating depictions of vocalist Henry Rollins. During the song's verses, he wears glasses and a plain black T-shirt and speaks in a calm, soothing tone about trust and friendship; from one verse to the next, his arms and face become increasingly stained with black paint. For the chorus segments, he is shirtless and painted red, wildly jumping and flailing about as he screams derisively at his audience for believing his lies. He is also seen dressed in a Superman parody costume, a police officer uniform, and a nun's habit.

Rollins Band - Liar Lyrics
You think you're going to live your life alone
In darkness and seclusion... Yeah, I know
You've been out there and tried to mix with those animals
And it just left you full of humiliated confusion
So you stagger back home and wait for nothing
But the solitary refinement of your room spits you back onto the streets
And now you're desperate and in need of human contact
And then you meet me and your whole world changes
Because everything I say is everything you've ever wanted to hear
So you drop all you defenses, and you drop all your fears
I'm perfect in every way
'Cause I make you feel so strong and so powerfull inside
You feel so lucky
But your ego obscures reality but you never bothered to
Wonder why things are going so well
You want to know why?
'Cause I'm a liar, yeah, I'm a liar
I'll tear your mind out, I'll burn your soul
I'll turn you into me, I'll turn you into me
'Cause I'm a liar, a liar, a liar, a liar, a liar...
I'll hide behind a smile and understanding eyes
And I'll tell you things that you already know so you can say:
I really identify with you, so much
And all the time that you're needing me is just the time
That I'm bleeding you, don't you get it yet?
I'll come to you like an affliction then I'll leave you like an addiction
You'll never forget me... You wanna know why?
'Cause I'm a liar, yeah, I'm a liar,
I'll rip your mind out, I'll burn your soul,
I'll turn you into me, I'll turn you into me,
'Cause I'm a liar, a liar, liar, liar, liar, liar...
I don't know why I feel the need to lie and cause you so much pain
Maybe it's something inside, maybe it's something I can't explain
'Cause all I do is mess you up and lie to you
I'm a liar, ooooh, I'm a liar
But if you'll give me another chance I swear I'll never lie to you again
'Cause now I see the destructive power of a lie,
They're stronger than truth
I can't believe I ever hurt you, I swear I will never lie to you again, please
Just give me one more chance, I'll never lie to you again, no,
I swear, I will never tell a lie, I will never tell a lie, no, no
Ha ha ha ha ha, ho ho ho! Sucker! Sucker! Ooooh sucker!
I am a liar, yeah, I am a liar, yeah, I like it,
I feel good, ooooh I am a liar... Yeah
I lie, I lie, I lie, ooh I lie, I lie, yeah,
Oooooh I'm a liar, I lie, yeah, I like it, I feel good,
I'll lie again, and again, I'll lie again and again and I'll keep lying,
I promise... Ha ha ha
This is the best song about narcissistic manipulation ever written. Henry Rollins hit the nail on the head when describing narcissistic abuse, the gaslighting, the projecting, and stonewalling.
Right! It’s genius.
Love this song since I was 15, but now that I’m pushing forty i’m old enough to grasp it. I’ve had plenty of experience dealing with these characters
@@codeeater0I was about to type the same thing! (But I was 13 and now I'm 42). Life can sure make you hear a song differently
dont use the term gaslight, it is pop culture term these days. It is a Noir 1944 movie and all of a sudden people are acting like it is some new term.
That's deep
He wrote the song about himself
When art was actually art
...election....politics...politicians....hahahahahahaah
It's a cool video and a good song. I think it's mixed well, too, if that's the correct term. The drums sound great.
what does that mean? there are so many amazing contemporary bands that make awesome tracks and videos.
There is some strain of King Crimson in this song ; I love it !
Which song?
@@airfixx_8952it sounds like red- or starless and Bible black-era king crimson
od
interesting observation
First made me think of FNM with the smooth jazz chords and the intriguing semi-spoken verses combined with an aggressive af chorus. But I see the line you drew to Crimson.
Henry was the best therapist I had in the 90's.
Good argument.
😂
..election....politics...politicians....hahahahahahaah
day'umn right
SAME HERE
I hadn’t listened to this song in 25 years I forgot how intense it was fucking heavy as fuck seriously
same , but the intensity is what I remember most . Then again I was 12
Henry is one badass
Henry Rollins is the definition of intensity in everything he does
Mam tak samo. Też odłożyłem ten kawałek na "półkę". W niesamowity sposób opisuje rządy obecnego premiera mojego kraju. Pozdrawiam
I remember the first time I heard this song. LOL Wow, he said the quiet part out loud. 😂
I known this from Beavis and Butthead in the golden 90s. Always great.
Liar!!! Liar!! Uh-huh huh
Hahaha same. Every time I listen to it I think of them.
..election....politics...politicians....hahahahahahaah
“Heh yeah I’d like to meet you”
TP😮
I always liked how Henry made the sound engineer a part of the band.
That's Theo Van Rock, he produced the Weight album.
@@nvjohansson9741
Rad!
I thought they had a synth too??
@@williammarshburn
Did they? Man I don’t remember. Lol.
I will never lie again, I promise. A brilliant lyric. Great tune👍
But now I understand, the destructive power of a lie!
Probably his best work ever
Agreed
It's not only one of HIS best works, it's one of the best works ever done.
...election....politics...politicians....hahahahahahaah
Damaged I@@WilliamLyons-ym7ee
Damaged I ~ Black Flag
That is my favorite.
You ever notice that Henry has the best posture in the world of punk? Bolt upright even when he's running full-speed ahead.
bwhahahaaa Top physical form for sure
powerful lyric "i will leave you like an addiction, you will never forget me", hit me hard that one.
...election....politics...politicians....hahahahahahaah
Very good!
IMHO particularly yes, if you add the first part of that line: "I'll come to you like an affliction then I'll leave you like an addiction"
I think what kills me the most about this song is him running back and forth between the chorus.
Its the gaslighting demons running and scheming in the liar's mind- spinning 23 alternative narratives behind the scenes. Sprinting to beat you to the conclusion and tie up loose ends. They are fervently making whole new plots before you can escape their webs of deception. 👹🏃♂️🕸🏃🏽♂️👹🏃🕸👹
The algorithms suggested this video. On my gaslighting ex’s birthday.
My mind is officially blown by how perfect a pick this was.
Henry Rollings is the type of guy who can politely beat you up.
Nailed it. He would probably ask after 'Do you understand why I had to beat your ass down".
..election....politics...politicians....hahahahahahaah..............
He'd probably say ...now remember you asked for this...😬
@@sauditate4562 seriously kind
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Great video. I love the reveal at the end that they actually are in the desert, but were shooting in front of fake desert matte paintings
People's talking about personal relationships and I see Rollins as a cop, as a nun, as a Superhero and as some kind of guru, The system in its obvious reppresive image, catholic religion, media, opportunist...I think the meaning of this song goes way beyond that kind of odd people that hurt us because of what we feel for them. I think it's about what capitalism could do to us.
Rollins the mastermind of the message in lyrics. Masterpiece
There are too many people in the world like this. Beware.
Be attentive to what people do, not what they say.
..election....politics...politicians....hahahahahahaah...............
my pops
yeah , they're mostly politicians and people in corporate America...🤓
i take from them in the end everytime
After listening to this song i stopped lying, I promise
Hahahahahahaha
Me too😊
As a ghetto person who grew up in the hood in NY, and I started working with suburb white kids, I heard this song in the warehouse and it changed my hole perspective on rock or alternative or what ever this falls under. This fucking song is next level. I see now why California MN Mexicans get into this music. It's very relative
As a fellow ‘Rollins’, Henry is our Mt. Rushmore and proud of it
salute , 🍻
Not his actual name. Lols
Who else is on that? Tree?
Henry's performance in this video is beyond superb
God damn this song is so good.
Love his little mannerisms in the video
Yeh..... Whether or not you want to call it a 'performance'; he's on fire on this video....... So good.
One of the best videos and songs of my school days!🤘🏽🤘🏽
I saw this by chance when I was 9. Probably explains a lot.
As a committed liar myself this track resonates, so much........ Just brilliant.
You're lying. (Oops you did it again.)
Great !!!!!!!!
You're missing his point.
you're missing humor@@humanonearth1
Liar
I will singlehandedly get this to 10k
Fkn classic!!
🤘💯💀💯🤘
woa that guy has a cool smile
I had this CD in the 90’s. Rollins is intense. I saw his spoken-word bit at the 9:30 Club. Dude talked for 4 hours it seemed like. Intense! Henry Rollins is awesome!
Still great after all these years!
В 90-е по каналу 2Х2 гоняли каждый день этот клипак, по нескольку раз. Так и произошло знакомство с дядькой Роллинзом.
Тоже самое
Year 2025, day 1. This song was my first exposure to pure honesty that made it out of the recording studio, to the masses.
I watched this. Realized my girlfriend had been lying & manipulating me for years. I showed her this video of a song I discovered. She disappeared the next day. Called the cops & said I was inundating her with texts & though I hadn’t at all, I just randomly got a call from them so I couldn’t contact her. &She was out of my life. She stole things on her way out, $600 in cash which was quite more in 2019 than now. Tons of family heirlooms that are worthless to her but she knew I loved. She was a liar.
If you play this for a narcissist thinking they will actually listen and care, they will just say YEAH, You are one.
Like u read my mind
Oblivious
..election....politics...politicians....hahahahahahaah..........
True…
Liar came on while I was watching music vids in ‘94, think I was 13 then…first time watching. It stood out to me that very instant.
I should have heeded warning however, due to years of narcissistic abuse of varying degrees within different relationships throughout my life. This song helped me to see the devastating destruction and will always be a life saver to me
2025 and this song couldn't be more relevant
Hahahahahaha...exactly right.
Prophetic lyrics
It's like a contemporary Gospel and warning all in one.
Honestly, it will always remain so. You'll never completely fix people. THere's gonna always be someone born wrong, or start life with a bad hand.
This song still holds up after all these years.
Zombie is a good metaphor for liar. Henry nailed it. I'll turn you into me.
Thank you Henry Rollins, for releasing this song in my teenage years, so I could learn a most valuable lesson about humanity.
30 years later, and still listening to it!
This is so great this guy is a real artist
I"m from that generation but im only just discoverimg this song
where have i been??
Henry Rollins is a genius 💖
Criminal that this only has 250k views. Should have millions
Arrest me! My name is Lewis Robert Burton Jr!
1:30 and what a smile it is!
The golden 90's. Thanks so much for the "Parental advisory explicit content" sign for shown me the some of the best albums in my life
This was my fav song from Henry rollings
😳1994!!! This man / band was next level! He / they KNEW a thing or two about manipulation & narcissism!! Wow, just wow. 😭
Anti-fascists do know the tools of fascists best...
Brilliant song by a brilliant man 👍
Great Tune! I love that the engineer is included:-)
Sometimes you really need to hear a song. Thank you Rollins Band.
Playing this non-stop on January 20th
Masterpiece track & album, my teenage years, MTV era, 90's forever !
I turn you into me .Lyrics so deep and true.
Я из того поколения, но я только что открыла для себя эту песню.
Где я была ?
Генри Роллинз - гений 💖
He's was in a band called Black Flag also. 1981-86.
Just guessing by the Cyrillic... you were somewhere in Russia or Eastern Europe? It's ok, the song still applies today. (Sadly.)
Great job remastering this. I've never seen it in this quality before.
Thanks!
My dad told me to listen to this song, it slaps it's fucking brilliant
Is there another American (celebrity) that is more authentic, sincere, and curious, than Henry Rollins?
I saw any performance’s in the 9ties in Germany,Denmark…Never forget this.👍👍😜👍👍🥁🥁
This guy is a stand up dude
It's one of the best songs ever written AND performed
cathartic.
Definitely Good music & Excellent lyrics about Narcissistic Abuse 💯💯💯‼️
That was a really great band
Masterpiece. Lyrics and music 10/10.
Says it all perfectly ❤
Awesome!!! Best song ever!
This song reminds me of my ex so much. She was my first girlfriend at 20 and the only woman I ever fell on love with. Exactly for all the reasons described in the lyrics. A painful lesson that unfortunately made me very weary of any of my other girlfriends' intentions. Not to the point of sabotage, but to the point where my defenses never fell back down.
Got it in one! 100% agree with these lyrics. Been the victim of it so many times. ❤
Just...Blown...Away Great Art
Hard rock 🖤 🤘
A jolly good song !
Well done!!!
Top ten best songs ever!
"I'm a liar! Yeahhhhh!' This is so good. This one's going on my Top 40 Countdown this week.
WOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! I love this song.
Fowl. The number of my childhood. From the age of 14-15 I was. But how fucking timely. Greetings Henry!
We've all been on the receiving end of this...
All too young to know bro
Henry fkg Rollins is an absolute Underground Legend...no lie!
This guy is one of the purest characters in the industry
I also like the live version when he says...." Sucker, you sucker, you fall for it everytime."
Himno de superación personal de todos los días alto valor terapéutico.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Saludos desde Cozumel Mexico Henry Rollins te amo vamos hacer mole juntos.
I saw them once in Glasgow in 1994. The only memories I have of that gig are Henry taking the piss out of the hecklers. At one point, he looked at one down the front and said to him 'if I don't beat you, he will', pointing to one of the bouncers.
This track never gets old
KLASSIC 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Total MTV, todas as tarde na programação 🤘🏾🤘🏾
Это просто отпад 👍 Шикарно
Именно так.
my dad used to dedicate this song to me when i was a child because i would lie about not having homework. now that im an adult i realize he was projecting this song onto me.
What a mindfu*k. You probably just needed kind, patient help on your homework. Instead you got mindfuc*ed by your dear old dad. The hypocrisy of him and the irony of it all. Glad you realize now that he was just projecting some bs onto you. You were just kid and you didn't deserve that. No kid deserves to be disparaged and mocked.
my uncle showed me this song back in like 2006 when i was in middle school. i used to listen to it all the time and now im coming back to it and it’s so good!
I saw them live in a club (Longhorn) in Stuttgart, Germany in 1994. I was in front line and Henry scared the shit out if me!!! It was so intense, brutal, raw and loud as hell! One of the best shows i ever was! Thank you Rollins Band, I love you!
This is a whole mood I love it
Awesome and a much underrated song and video, again, awesome
Brilliant 👍
I didn't know Mom's new boyfriend had a band.
Anyone still here in 2024?
FK yeah
We're here dude.
Absolutely....or maybe I am lying
after 30 years ideal for a 2024 DJT hymn?!!
Sure am, saw this at 9 and now 39. Been a ride so far.
Great sound, music of my youth
One of the most powerful songs ever written, everyone has met this person at some point.
I loved it back then, and I still love it. Henry at his best! ❤ This five minutes is more entertaining and exciting than the movies of today!
I couldn't have said it any better
To this day I can't figure this dude out...is what makes him so good to me.
Lolol Rollins was years ahead of the MeToo movement with this one
this song is about abusive family/friends, you just threw that in because you don't like your favorite media darlings getting in trouble
@augmentedsupersoldier lolol yeah huh?? Is that what you're going with? You should try to learn to laugh sometimes in life and not take stuff so seriously Mr big deal
