Liar Lyrics

Cover art for Liar lyrics by Stars

Christ, this song is probably the scariest song Stars have done. I don't know what it's about exactly, as I've never heard any of the band members comment on it. But, knowing Stars, they've probably derived it from a movie.

Buuuuut, the idea I've got is that there is basically just the progtaganist who is pretty messed up in the head.

He lives a partying-kinda life, and the beginning of the song suggests that he warned a girl of the dangers of serious drug-use and she ends up in a critical condition. He rapes her in this state and then, in his "mentally-messed-up" state he claims it was done by someone nearly identical to him.

correction...it goes "a kid I blew in central park"

The progtaganist is a bi-sexual too. A while ago, he met and blew a younger boy. And now he meets him again in a local cafe. The kid recounts tales of his childhood, and the progtaganist murders and rapes him. Once again, he claims it was done by his double.

And finally, the progtaganist comes to the realization that what he is doing to these people is just totally fucked up and he leaves on a boat for Alta Mesa junction. He has a friend there that might be able to help him come back to reality and humanity.
