Deep down they don't believe their lies are true. Somewhere inside them - unless they are insane or suffering from delusions - they know they are lying and they will despite knowing this they will still defend their lie to the death even when caught out as it is a defense mechanism. Think of a cheater who will call their partner a paranoid skitso when all along they know deep inside that they did cheat.

I heard a great quote once to describe narcissists..

"He would lie even if the truth would save his neck"
