“
I lie awake at night to wait 'til you come in.
You stay a little while and then you're gone again.
Every question that I ask, I get a lie, lie, lie.
For every lie you tell, you're gonna cry, cry, cry!
— Johnny Cash

Every question that I ask, I get a lie, lie, lie.
For every lie you tell, you're gonna cry, cry, cry!" in the context of ""Cry! Cry! Cry!"" to mean that wisdom is timeless.
