Flatline

(I can't help myself when it's you)
(When it's you)
Told her it's ok
It's just a white lie
Forget this
And everything will be fine
Can't lie to myself
It's not alright
Every second chance is a flatline
She won't ever change
So why do I try to make things work
Tell me pretty lies
So that I turn a blind eye
I think I'm going under
Falling off the flatline

I could try to give you all of me
But it won't change what you're doing to me
I think you want me to feel incomplete
Like I need you
When I really don't
And yes, I get it
'Cause I know I'm not the only one
That you been seeing
Don't think I don't know
I'm not the only guy you're bringing home
'Cause you're insecure about being alone
But I still let you lie
I still let you hide
What you think I don't know
But it's ok I'll let it go
It changes nothing so I

Told her it's ok
It's just a white lie
Forget this
And everything will be fine
Can't lie to myself
It's not alright
Every second chance is a flatline
She won't ever change
So why do I try to make things work
Tell me pretty lies
So that I turn a blind eye
I think I'm going under
Falling off the flatline

Oh, to be honest
I'm really not okay with sharing you
I want you all to myself
Call me possessive or selfish
Oh well
You can come with me
Or go straight to hell
Why did we become a fantasy
I don't remember us playing pretend
You said you'd always be here in the end
But turns out
That was never really in your plans

So please
Tell me all of your lies
Tell me if I'm wasting my time
'Cause you have my mind
I'm distracted all of the time
Tell me why you can't be mine tonight

Told her it's ok
It's just a white lie
Forget this
And everything will be fine
Can't lie to myself
It's not alright
Every second chance is a flatline
She won't ever change
So why do I try to make things work
Tell me pretty lies
So that I turn a blind eye
I think I'm going under
Falling off the flatline
