"How Many Times, How Many Lies" lyrics

"How Many Times, How Many Lies"

People tried to tell me something
Oh, but I was hearing nothing
When they said you was just playing me
I didn't listen
I didn't want to
You couldn't find a blinder fool
I'm here, searching through the wreckage
Wondering why the message never got through
And I found I misplaced all of my faith
How could I put my faith in you?

How many times?
How many lies?
How long you been sneaking?
How long you been creepin' around?
How many lies?
How many times
Were you here deceiving
While I was here believing in you?

I gotta put the blame on myself
Should've known with everyone else
Just knowing they knew you was just bad news
I shoulda walked out (I shoulda walked out)
I shoulda seen clear (I shoulda seen clear)
Glad your sad ass is outta here
I've gone and thrown out all the records
All the ones that ever reminded me of you
I've gone and tore up all the pictures
'Cause there was not one shred of truth, no

How many times? (Tell me, tell me)
How many lies? (How many lies?)
How long you been sneaking?
How long you been creepin' around? (Come on and tell me)
How many lies? (Oh)
How many times
Were you here deceiving
While I was here believing in you?

There were so many times, there were so many lies
I don't know why I stayed, no
There were so many days there were so many games
I should've thrown your sad ass out
I was the dumbest fool with ever trusting you
I finally got wise
I opened up my eyes, your game is over

I've gone and thrown out all the records
All the ones that ever reminded me of you
I've gone and torn up all the pictures (Yeah, hey)
'Cause there was not one shred of truth
No, no, no

How many times? (Tell me, tell me)
How many lies? (How many times?)
How long you been sneaking? (Woah, oh)
How long you been creepin' around? (Come on and tell me)
How many lies?
How many times
Were you here deceiving
While I was here believing in you?

How many times? (Tell me, tell me, oh)
How many lies?
How long you been sneaking? (How long you been sneaking?)
How long you been creepin' around? (Come on and tell me, oh)
How many lies?
How many times
Were you here deceiving (Were you here deceiving)
While I was here believing in you?

Woah (Ooh)
No (Ooh)
Yeah, yeah, oh, I opened up my eyes (Ooh)
Woah
Oh
Yeah, yeah, hey
