Lie Lie Lie lyrics

to me this song seems like serj having fun with his music with no absolute point to it. and the music video looks to me like the only point of it is to emphisis the song. to me this song has no political point to it.

im not saying it dosnt, thats just me, so dont get mad at me

Zetsubou_Ichi is completely right about this song. People can work out all kinds of convoluted meanings for it, but at the heart of it it's just a fun little song that Serj wrote. The fun thing about the song to me is the first few times I listened to the song I didn't really get how dark it was.

This song really has no political meaning behind it. Its one song that he actually intended to make no sense whatsoever in. Serj said it himself, and I would have never said it without meaning it. He almost discarded the song because he didn't know where he was getting with it, but in the end he decided he liked it and kept it.

This song is about the Iraq war. The lie is the lies perpetrated by the US government against the American and Iraqi people in order to go to war. The US is the dominant force in the relationship, and the song is from the perspective of the Iraqi people, who want to be let go from the the US involvement. They are currently in the middle of a violent insurrection that is killing both US and Iraqi citizens. Iraq was the beginnings of civilization, and the "ending of it all" is the demise of civilization between the oldest and newest civilizations on the planet. He says you're my brother because we are all humanity, but our similarities are obscured by the fuckers in charge who risk the destruction of the human race in their greed and bloodlust.

I have to agree with the whole political thing blacksheep said, the it would make sense in today's economy
