Lie for you
I know you have your reasons, I know you have your ways
Doesn’t make it any easier to learn to walk again
You said it would be better as I swallowed back my tears
Though I could wait for you forever I said what you wanted to hear
I gave my word that I’d be fine
I promised you I’d never lie
Honestly, every time a thought of you crosses my mind
I lie through my teeth, I lie with a smile
I lie with the strength of a train running wild
I break the truth
Every time I breathe, with every lonely heartbeat
I lie. I lie for you.
Beginnings are so easy, the middle’s such a climb
Endings are the worst of all, someone’s always left behind
Do you miss me when its raining, is this yearning only mine
I agreed because I love you. I was hoping that time might change your mind
I gave you my word that I’d be fine
I promised you I’d never lie
Honestly, every time a thought of you crosses my mind
I lie through my teeth, I lie with a smile
I lie with the strength of a train running wild
I break the truth
Every time I breathe, with every lonely heartbeat
I lie. I lie for you.
