Truth Is I Lied

Billy Ray Cyrus

Scratched a heart on your door then I shoved myself outside
Lashed my soul cross this twin horse and rode off in the night
Guess you noticed I'm gone and the low morning sun's
Cast some shadows with questions inside

So the truth is his letter at dawn will send a new light
Truth is I lied when I said I'd always be your whippin' pet
I lied when I said,"I shouldn't mind the hurt I guess"
When I pleaded and stated I needed you just to survive (I lied)

Truth is last night when you tore my heart apart my mind begin
Never thinkin' like your fool again
And a freedom that you fill me kept spelling out truth as I'd write
Truth is I lied

Saw an image of you where the highway touched the sky
I was blockin' my view so I steered that thought aside
Now the morning and me ride a cold memory past tomorrow to some other town
Where we'll never care wheather this truth was lost or found
Truth is I lied when I said I'd always be your whippin' pet
I lied when I said,"I shouldn't mind the hurt I guess"

When I pleaded and stated I needed you just to survive (I lied)
Truth is last night when you tore my heart apart my mind begin
Never thinkin' like your fool again
And a freedom that you fill me kept spelling out truth as I'd write
Truth is I lied
Truth is I lied
