To lye to lie to lay

by Fluffysausage

Is it to lye or to lie or to lay? "to recline whilst not telling the truth in a prone position?" The greatest lies lie, lye, lay, lay in not telling the truth but failing to lay at all. Am I to never lye again, but would that be a lie? And not to tell the truth, also be a lye? Or a lay? I must ensure that I would never again lie, swearing the truth; to, living, lying longing, laying, lying, or just - lay; lye; lay; lie... ...why is liing not a word?
