Dark, dark, way down lurk creatures of the deep
They slither and slide and knock against our feet
Push them down beneath the sand; no one can hear them breathe
Push them down beneath the sand, their skin on our feet

And letters from a liar's heart are laying in your hand
Scribbled, sad, sorry sentences
No pardons will be given; no pardons received
Letters from a liar's heart
Letters from me

Like seashells in buckets
And sand in the shells
Glass in the sand so finely ground

Hide me away, hide me away
Hide me away, hide me away

And letters from a liar's heart are laying in your hand
Scribbled, sad, sorry sentences
No pardons will be given; no pardons received
Letters from a liar's heart
Letters from me

Let's swim to the shore, let's swim to the shore
Let's swim far, far, far away from here
Let's swim to the shore, let's swim to the shore
Let's swim far, far, far away from here

And hide me away, hide me away
Hide me away, hide me away

And letters from a liar's heart are laying in your hand
Scribbled, sad, sorry sentences
No pardons will be given; no pardons received
Letters from a liar's heart
Letters from me
