[Intro: Elijah Blake]
Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie
Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie
Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie
Mmh, mmh
[Verse 1: Jordin Sparks]
Like the Persian rug on a bedroom floor
You lie, you lie
Like the ingredients they put in all them shakes from the corner store
You lie, you lie
[Pre-Chorus: Jordin Sparks]
And the truth is that I want to trust you
But the truth is I don't know why I do
If I saw I purple, you would tell me it’s blue
'Cause you lie, you lie
[Chorus: Jordin Sparks]
If there was fire, you'd call it rain
If there was thunder, you’d say it's shots from fighter planes
You put on your finest shoes just to run off with the truth
Wish I knew why you lie
You call them roses, I call them thorns
You say we're brand new, I say we're torn
'Cause you see conflict where there's proof
You got everything to lose
But it's black and white, you lie
Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie
Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie
[Verse 2: Elijah Blake]
I got the facts but you don't want no smoke
You got problems but never solutions though
So what the hell are we fighting for?
If you can’t kick the habit like Fila
January, March, April, May
You don’t ever have the answers, Sway
First of June, you brought the summer time
But hold up, you went cold in July
[Pre-Chorus: Elijah Blake]
Truth is that I want to trust you
But the truth is I don't know why I do
If I saw I purple, you would tell me it’s blue
'Cause you lie, you lie
[Chorus: Elijah Blake]
If there was fire, you'd call it rain
If there was thunder, you'd say it’s gunshots on a plane
You put on your finest shoes just to run off with the truth
Wish I knew why you lie
You call them roses, I call them thorns
You say you're brand new, I say we're torn
'Cause you see conflict where there's proof
You got everything to lose
But it's black and white, you lie
Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie
Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie
[Chorus: Jordin Sparks & Elijah Blake]
If there was fire, you'd call it rain
If there was thunder, you'd say it's shots from fighter planes
You put on your finest shoes just to run off with the truth
Wish I knew why you lie
You call them roses, I call them thorns
You say you're brand new, I say we're torn
'Cause you see conflict where there's proof
You got everything to lose
But it's black and white, you lie
[Outro: Jordin Sparks]
Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie
Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie
