Telling Lies
Told me what you want
When you needed me
Walked home in a daze
That short night
Something like ache
Warm in my mind
Stars from the sky
Keeping it light
I tried to tell you
I'm not so good
At telling lies
Laying on my bed
I hear your laugh
Rings through my head
Like a bell
Wasting my time
Kicking feelings
Kiss me on the head
You always do
Please, baby, find me
I want this to
Stay alive
Dreamt you told me
That you'd love me all the time
Forget the others
Say it like it's the first time
I know it's hard
But will you look me in the eye?
Whatever's hardened
We will leave
Leave it alone
