The Patron Saint of Liars and Fakes Lyrics

I'm holding out and I'm holding on
To every letter and every song
I wrote myself out of the day we ever had to meet
You through with me?

So
And when it all goes to hell
Will you be able to tell me "sorry" with a straight face?
And when it all goes to hell
Will you be able to tell me "sorry" with a straight face?

(Let's go!)

I'm all ears and I'm all scars
To hear you tell me "Boy's like you, you try too hard
To look not quite as desperate"
Well I'm hanging on
But I still know the way to make your makeup run

So
And when it all goes to hell
Will you be able to tell me "sorry" with a straight face?
And when it all goes to hell
Will you be able to tell me "sorry" with a straight face?

And when it all goes to hell
Will you be able to tell me "sorry" with a straight face?
And when it all goes to hell (Take this to your grave)
Will you be able to tell me "sorry" with a straight face? (And I'll take it to mine)

And when it all goes to hell
And when it all goes to hell
And when it all goes to hell
And when it all goes

What is the Meaning of The Patron Saint of Liars and Fakes?

In this poignant narrative, Fall Out Boy explores themes of betrayal, regret, and emotional turmoil within interpersonal relationships. The lyrics depict a protagonist grappling with the aftermath of a fractured relationship, characterized by dishonesty and insincerity. The recurring question of whether the other party can apologize "with a straight face" underscores the depth of deceit and lack of genuine remorse. Furthermore, the imagery of holding onto letters and songs suggests an attempt to preserve memories amidst the chaos. The repeated reference to things "going to hell" signifies inevitable downfall and disillusionment. This song serves as a cathartic expression of frustration and disillusionment with those who feign sincerity while perpetuating falsehoods. #Betrayal #EmotionalTurmoil
