There have been many days
Where I know I was to blame
For words I let escape
That made you hang your head in shame

Well I wish I knew way back then
What I have learned now, oh my friend
That there is a better way
Just take care of it before the end of the day

For the sun is starting to go down
But my words are still hanging around
Well it's time I put them in their bed
Oh, before the sun sets
Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie
All those words I spoke in anger
Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie
Oh no, can't let them linger

Such a tiny, little thing
Old bitterness would have you think
Just to take hold and make a home
For all the pain that this life brings

But there is no greater lie
Set to steal all the joy in this life
For that's why He came and died
So you could put that heavy burden aside

For the sun is starting to go down
So if your words are still hanging around
Well it's time you put them in their bed
Oh, before the sun sets
Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie
All those words you spoke in anger
Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie
Oh no, don't let them linger

Ephesians 4:26
