[Verse 1]
All the lies that you told
All the schemes that you sold
The promise you broke
In fact, you looked like another baby
I would've loved to have spent my life with you
Your heart in mine
But I can't find the strength and the time
To fight your betrayal, baby

[Pre-Chorus]
You're pushing me further down the line
And I don't think that it's right
You're running around in town and telling lies

[Chorus]
'Cause I don't think it is right
You're living for yourself, you're pushing me aside
I'm trying hard to step into the light
Girl, I'm living in a lie

[Verse 2]
Every time you tell me, "Keep your thoughts to yourself"
Well, I'm trying so hard, babe, but I don't think I can make it
Stories go on and on where it began
Where did it go wrong
The end is showing her face
[Pre-Chorus]
You're pushing me further down the line
And I don't think that it's right
You're running around in town and telling lies

[Chorus]
'Cause I don't think it is right
You're living for yourself, you're pushing me aside
I'm trying hard to step into the light
Girl, I'm living in a lie

[Bridge]
What else can I do? Pretend I don't love you?
When you make me feel like this
I try to understand that time heals everything
But scars will stay forever, and ever, and ever

[Chorus]
'Cause I don't think it is right
You're living for yourself, you're pushing me aside
I'm trying hard to step into the light
Girl, I'm living in a lie

[Outro]
I'm living in a lie
I'm living in a lie
