It's totally made up. It evolved from trying to use those random words and phrases.
Lyrics
verse:
You've always been a convincing liar,
Knowing when to tell half truths.
Still, I wish I could take back the rounds I fired.
I found that you're not bulletproof.
chorus:
All the lawyers in the world won't get me freed
From my self-inflicted misery.
You said you were going out for groceries.
That's the last time you lied to me.
verse:
You never got more complex with time.
Never tried to change your habits.
I wanted you to like fine clothes and wine,
You drank cheap beer and wore a denim jacket.
chorus
verse:
Maybe I don't even know your real name.
Those clever lies distracted me.
Now I stare at an empty picture frame
And wonder what attracted me.
