Create an atmosphere of sympathy and understanding. Avoid using any harsh words and express regret over having to confront the issue at all. Provide logical, plausible reasons for why you lied and how you will take measures to ensure that it doesn't happen again. Finally, promise to change and ask for forgiveness. This may lead to more lying, so it is important to maintain an atmosphere of trust by being truthful from then on.
