How do you know what you can be
If you can't see where you are going?
What breaks the silence, misery
Can make you see where you belong.
It's a dangerous stage, but the show must go on.
Why do you lie, why do you lie?
Would you betray your soul?
Why do you lie, why do you lie?
Don't let your weakness show.
You just might be the last to know.
Freedom is such a loaded word,
So full of hurt and such aplomb.
Loneliness saunters in its breeze,
Like a disease it drags along.
The time of your life can't be had for a song.
Why do you lie, why do you lie?
Would you betray your soul?
Why do you lie, why do you lie?
Don't let your weakness show.
You just might be the last to know.
Why do you lie, why do you lie?
Would you betray your soul?
Why do you lie, why do you lie?
Don't let your weakness show.
Why do you lie, why do you lie?
Only the meek follow.
Why do you lie, why do you lie?
Trample the fear below.
You just might be the last to know.

I think it's about staying true to yourself. The opening lines : "How do you know what you can be if you can't see where you're going". Powerful line to me. I think it's about having purpose as well.

It pretty much is talking about all of the insignificant and trivial dreams of the people in this world. In this way you are lying to yourself and denying the truth to your mind. As the chorus goes, 'Why do you lie, why do you lie? Would you betray your soul? Why do you lie, why do you lie? Don't let you weakness show.' Everyone dreams and fantasies about their future but are then prone to their mental downfall. 'The Lie' represents the 'common people' and their longing for success and luxury and, additionally, dream and 'lie' to theirselves that they can and will obtain and attain this state or thing.
