Lie (Edit) Lyrics

Album: Lie

Daybreak at the bottom of the lake,

it's a hundred degrees, I can't breathe.

I won't get out 'til I figure it out

though I'm weak like I can't believe.

So you tell me "trust me",

I can trust you,

just let me show you.

But I gotta work it out

in a shadow of doubt,

because I don't know

if I know you.

Doing fine but don't waste my time,

tell me what it is you want to say.

You sin, you win, just let me in.

Hurry, I've been out in the rain all day.

So you tell me "trust me",

I can trust you as far

as I can throw you.

I'm trying to get

out of a shadow of doubt,

because I don't know

if I know you.

Don't tell me you wanted me,

don't tell me you thought of me.

I won't, I swear I won't!

I'll try, I swear I'll try!

Mother Mary quite contrary,

kiss the boys and make them wary.

Things are getting just

a little bit scary.

it's a wonder I can still breathe!

Never been much of a doubting Thomas,

but nothing breaks like a broken promise.

You tell me about your two more coming,

but once is just enough for me.

Don't tell me you wanted me,

don't tell me you thought of me.

I won't, I swear I won't!

I'll try, I swear I'll try!

I had gotten used to

being a soul destroyed,

she comes in apparently

to fill the void.

All dogs need a leash

and at least I'll forget it.

She would never hurt me

though she's never said it.

But I'm not gonna ask her today,

I don't wanna scare her away.

Your town, I'm all alone,

and I just can't stare

at the phone.

I wanna talk about

lifelong mistakes,

and you can tell your

stepfather I said so.

Don't tell me you wanted me,

don't tell me you thought of me.

I won't, I swear I won't!

I'll try, I swear I'll try!
