"Lie To Me" lyrics

I was never tall
Never knew much at all
About making more than nickels and dimes
The place that I'm from
Folks assume that we're dumb
And I'm thinking they might just be right

I fell for you
And you said you did too
But lately I'm not quite convinced
Was your head in the clouds?
I had it turned up so loud
You couldn't see I'm more pauper than prince?

I won you over that night
I've been chasing your tail ever since

So lie to me I've got courage I'll believe
So lie to me I've got courage I'll believe

We started like a fire
But I can tell that you're tired
Of seeing smoke and breathing in fumes
You must be on to me
How could this smoke screen be
Something that you can't see through?

I've got this thing burning buildings
I've always been willing
It's scary but I can pretend
I never get rattled
Like a soldier in battle
I follow a lie to the end

I follow little white lies
To my fiery end

So lie to me I've got courage I'll believe
If you still want to be with me, lie to me

Can you remember?
We burned a hole through September?
Kept us warm through December
The fire was all we could see

Can you remember?
We burned a hole through September?
Kept us warm through the long December
Stoke the fire, let's make believe

Lie to me I've got courage I'll believe
If you still want to be with me, lie to me
It's just fire to me I've got courage I'll believe
That you'll still want to be with me

Lie to me
