River Lie
I saw you coming from miles away
From miles away, from miles away
You tell a story right to my face
Just not the same from yesterday
Boy them lies gonna flood your mouth
Watch out you're gonna suffocate
Don't come running back to me now
I'm done and you're too fucking late
Bet I would set this house on fire
Before I let you back inside
When trouble waters rolling higher and higher
Just let the river
Let the river
Let the river
Let the river lie lie lie lie
Just let the river
Let the river
Let the river lie lie lie lie
Lie lie lie
You made a bed with empty words
Where you could lay my heart to die
Don't you know I'm like gasoline?
You struck the match, I'll run you dry
Maybe you think way too high of yourself
When really you're not more than dust on the shelf
Bet I would set this house on fire
Before I let you back inside
When troubled water's rolling higher and higher
Just let the river
Let the river
Let the river
Let the river lie lie lie lie
Just let the river
Let the river
Let the river lie lie lie lie
Lie
Just let the river
Baby you're wasting your time standing at my door
Don't bother knocking 'cause love don't live here no more
Baby you're wasting your time standing at my door (my door)
Don't bother knocking (my door, my door)
Just let the river
Let the river
Let the river
Let the river lie lie lie lie
Just let the river
Let the river
Let the river lie lie lie lie
Lie lie lie
At my door
Don't live here no more
At my door
Just let the river
From miles away, from miles away
You tell a story right to my face
Just not the same from yesterday
Boy them lies gonna flood your mouth
Watch out you're gonna suffocate
Don't come running back to me now
I'm done and you're too fucking late
Bet I would set this house on fire
Before I let you back inside
When trouble waters rolling higher and higher
Just let the river
Let the river
Let the river
Let the river lie lie lie lie
Just let the river
Let the river
Let the river lie lie lie lie
Lie lie lie
You made a bed with empty words
Where you could lay my heart to die
Don't you know I'm like gasoline?
You struck the match, I'll run you dry
Maybe you think way too high of yourself
When really you're not more than dust on the shelf
Bet I would set this house on fire
Before I let you back inside
When troubled water's rolling higher and higher
Just let the river
Let the river
Let the river
Let the river lie lie lie lie
Just let the river
Let the river
Let the river lie lie lie lie
Lie
Just let the river
Baby you're wasting your time standing at my door
Don't bother knocking 'cause love don't live here no more
Baby you're wasting your time standing at my door (my door)
Don't bother knocking (my door, my door)
Just let the river
Let the river
Let the river
Let the river lie lie lie lie
Just let the river
Let the river
Let the river lie lie lie lie
Lie lie lie
At my door
Don't live here no more
At my door
Just let the river
