Time passes quickly for our lady of the hour
  She brushes her long blonde hair
  From her face only to find a tear
  But she don't know why she's been crying
  
  She looks inside herself
  To maybe find an answer
  But she's willingly distracted
  By the man who likes her glitter
  She says, 'Fool, I ain't gold'
  
  She don't even know she cries
  'Cause she's so tangled up in lies
  
  In her head she plays a game
  Pretending that she's not the same
  Lady who is cheating on her husband
  With a man she hardly even knows
  She says, 'Ignorance is bliss'
  
  But when he asks her name
  She must fumble for an answer
  She's been called so many
  But now she can't remember
  So she just makes up another
  
  And she don't even know she cries
  'Cause she's so tangled up in lies
  
  Now the dirty deed is done
  She heads into the bathroom
  She washes her hands in the sink
  As though it could clean her conscience
  If only she could find one
  
  And slowly she turns and heads
  For the door as if this were all a dream
  She has seen her sweet husbands face
  But only like a fleeting glimpse
  Of all those bridges she's been burning
  All those bridges she's been burning
  
  And she don't even know she cries
  It should come as no surprise
  'Cause she's so tangled up in lies
