    ------
    Is it the truth or a lie?
    As determined by
    Heavy breathing or a sudden spike
    Is it the truth or a lie?
    As determined by
    Heavy breathing or a sudden spike
    Just a few simple questions to start us out
    Your name and your occupation
    As I monitor the needle for the slightest variation
    Just a few simple questions to start us out
    You wouldn’t look a gift horse in the mouth
    And if you did, you’d know it wasn’t right
    So tell me, what you doing there last night?
    So lie to me
    Provided we will still know the truth
    The horse we provided was long in the tooth
    But you ride it to death
    Because you needed an answer
    And the answer was always a-
    Lie to me, just lie to me
    I don’t care at all
    The truth is what I make it
    The gavel will fall
    On the heads of guilty
    Whether they’re guilty at all
    What exactly is the difference
    Between a liar and a coward?
    Futile insistence-there’s a world between them
    What explains their identical outcome?
    “Beyond my expectation, [for] uncontrollable factors,
    this scientific investigation became for practical purposes...”
    So lie to me
    Provided we will still know the truth
    The horse we provided was long in the tooth
    But you ride it to death
    Because you needed an answer
    And the answer was always a-
    Lie to me, lie to me
    I don’t care at all
    The truth is what I make it
    The gavel will fall
    On the heads of guilty
    Whether they’re guilty at all
    And I hate this
    I hate what this has become
    My finest moment is done
    And as I fade into obscurity
    Take these gifts now as your own
    Lord, let their faith atone
    Just remember you’re a liar just like me
    Just like me
    Just like me
    Just like me
    Just like...

    I just realized that the sections between the first two choruses mirror each other. It builds from the intro, through the two verse sections and into the chorus, then repeats those parts in reverse order so the intro ties directly back into the second chorus. Phenomenal arrangement.

I have no f***in idea how you can top this record, ever. But I've been wrong before... On second thoughts F that, you don't even need to top it, I enjoyed each and every one of your albums and I will always welcome a new one with open arms. You nailed this one though. Can't wait for the live show. Wherever it is, I'll be there.

    Honestly I like this more than a few songs that made the record. Just my opinion. This song seriously has balls with it's synth, funky chords, etc. I grinned like a total idiot when Rody sang "for uncontrollable factors.". I guess the intervals resonated with me. I hope this song makes the live setlist time to time.

    So this song is about the creation of the Lie Detector in the 60's and the box of worms it created culturally? Such a fascinating concept. I can see how it doesn't quite fit the timeline of Palimpsest's concept, which is a shame, because this song is a BOP

Anyways the place was like after a bombing... shady place with the neighbourhood crumbling looking...The Chariot was there too, and one more band... which I can't remember right now. Rody, I was the weird one wanting to exchange t-shirts with you. You had the dillinger escape plan calculating infinity shirt. You told me it was your friends shirt, so you can't trade it in :D. Anyways, rock on you glorious bastards! This song right here, it's my new favorite!
