"Tell Me A Lie" lyrics

"Tell Me A Lie"

(Karma caught up all-)

Karma caught up all the way to the ceiling
Told you that it wasn't love, didn't mean it
You won't get it, but I got my reasons
Think I'm losing control
We could go out every weekend, won't we?
Always with you, but I still feel lonely
Maybe I'm the only one who knows me

I do what I can to keep you at arm's length
But it's not enough, is it? No
'Cause I know (I know)
I'm avoiding the truth and it shows, so

I don't wanna feel like how I'm feeling tonight
I know you said it's over and you're probably right
Told you to be honest, but just for the night
Stop, and tell me a lie (tell me a lie)
I don't wanna feel like how I'm feeling right now
Said that I'd be fine, but now I'm freaked the fuck out
Told you to be honest, but just for the night
Stop, and tell me a lie, tell me a lie

Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Tell me a lie, tell me a lie

I don't wanna feel, fuck
I don't wanna feel
If we say that shit out loud, it'll make it real
Tell me something I don't wanna hear (yeah, yeah)
Tell me some' to make it disappear
I've been so alone, like you, so much
On paper, we look perfect, but that's why we're torn up
Said we wouldn't end it like our parents, guess what?
That's all on us, that's all on us

I do what I can to keep you at arm's length
But it's not enough, is it? No
'Cause I know
I'm avoiding the truth and it shows, so

I don't wanna feel like how I'm feeling tonight
I know you said it's over and you're probably right
Told you to be honest, but just for the night
Stop, and tell me a lie (hey, tell me a lie)
I don't wanna feel like how I'm feeling right now
Said that I'd be fine, but now I'm freaked the fuck out
Told you to be honest, but just for the night
Stop, and tell me a lie, tell me a lie

Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah (tell me a lie)
Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah (tell me a lie)
Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah (stop)
Tell me a lie and tell me a lie
