Album: Playing In The Shadows (2011)

Lying To Yourself

I thought it was curtains for us
All seemed so certain
You could say that the words are my version
Of things or the reason you're hurtin'
I thought it was curtains for us
All seemed so certain
And I know that the reason I lied
Was a crime and it's kinda disturbin'

And I'm happy to admit that I lied
And I'll admit that I ruined your life
You can never admit if you tried
And you're so wrong
And you're so wrong
And I'm happy to admit that I lied
And I'll admit that I ruined your life
You can never admit if you tried
And you're so wrong

Until you stop lying to yourself
I'll never stop lying to you
And until I start crying to myself
I'll never cry in front of you
I'll fight the tallest giants
And break the rules of science
But I'll never stop lying to you
And I've never said a word so true

It used to be a case of trying to impress her
I pestered her daily
This lady arrested my heart and I highly respected her
Take a lying detector but I'd probably pass the test
And I started this, not defending it
But you're asking me questions
Creating the tension, the tension
I miss all the tenderness
It's the truth but the truth isn't ending this

And I'm happy to admit that I lied
And I'll admit that I ruined your life
You can never admit if you tried
And you're so wrong
And you're so wrong
And I'm happy to admit that I lied
And I'll admit that I ruined your life
You can never admit if you tried
And you're so wrong

Until you stop lying to yourself
I'll never stop lying to you
And until I start crying to myself
I'll never cry in front of you
I'll fight the tallest giants
And break the rules of science
But I'll never stop lying to you
And I've never said a word so true

Our love was built on glass from day
We both were too afraid to say
Our love was built on glass from day
Too afraid to say

Until you stop lying to yourself
I'll never stop lying to you
And until I start crying to myself
I'll never cry in front of you
I'll fight the tallest giants
And break the rules of science
But I'll never stop lying to you
And I've never said a word so true
