"Been Lyin'" lyrics

"Been Lyin'"

Don't wear my shades to be cool
I wear them to hide my tears from you
Behind the smoke I'm so red eye
And I'm tired of you asking why
I said I've been lying to you
And I've been lying to me too

My heart has been through hell and back
I've only dressed in pretty and black
Middle finger when it comes to love
Act like I don't really give a fuck
Cause I've been lying to you
I said I've been lying to me too

I've been lying, lying to you
Baby I've been lying, lying to me, too
I've been lying, lying to you
Baby I've been lying, lying to me, too

I don't always say what I want to say
I tattoo myself to show my pain
Don't lead in a crowded space even though we're both face to face
Cause I've been lying to you
Said I've been lying to me too

Hurry up and wake for the spotlight
Looks like another whisky night
What's inside they never expose
They only see what the camera shows
Cause I've been lying to you
Said I've been lying to me too, noo

I've been lying, lying to you
Baby I've been lying, lying to me, too
I've been lying, lying to you
Baby I've been lying, lying to me, too

It's like the whole world's getting at me
Tryin to make everyone happy, that ain't me
Walking around, wearing a smile, but deep down I'm really fucked up, this ain't me
I don't wanna quit, tryin to hang with this
And figure out who the hell I am
I don't mean to make you run away
But I don't wanna forget to be me

The truth is I don't wanna lose you
But I don't wanna lose me too

I've been lying, lying to you
Baby I've been lying, lying to me, too
I've been lying, lying to you
Baby I've been lying, lying to me, too

I've been lying, lying to you
Baby I've been lying, lying to me, too
I've been lying, lying to you
Baby I've been lying, lying to me, too
