A Thousand Little Lies
Whose tracks are in the driveway
What's that smell on your clothes
Why won't you ever talk to me
We used to be close
There's something in the air
I can feel it in my bones
I'm the ghost of man
A stranger in my home
It's not the years I've lost to you
It's not those desperate fights
It's not your eyes have turned to black
From tender rays of light
It's not the leaving lonely cry
That keeps me up at night
It's running through and adding up
A thousand little lies
Thoughts and denials
Something isn't right
A weekend out of town
Another late night
Did you tell him that you loved him
And crawl in bed with me
Did he shake my hand and smile
Did you watch me nervously
It's not the years I've lost to you
It's not those desperate fights
It's not your eyes have turned to black
From tender rays of light
It's not the leaving lonely cry
That keeps me up at night
It's running through and adding up
A thousand little lies
Hush these haunted visions
Hush my wicked mind
Still my inhibitions
I'm stepping off the line
Walk around the corner babe
Sleep with one eye on
It's either you or me
And I might be moving on
It's not the years I've lost to you
It's not those desperate fights
It's not your eyes have turned to black
From tender rays of light
It's not the leaving lonely cry
That keeps me up at night
It's running through and adding up
A thousand little lies
A thousand little lies
A thousand little lies
What's that smell on your clothes
Why won't you ever talk to me
We used to be close
There's something in the air
I can feel it in my bones
I'm the ghost of man
A stranger in my home
It's not the years I've lost to you
It's not those desperate fights
It's not your eyes have turned to black
From tender rays of light
It's not the leaving lonely cry
That keeps me up at night
It's running through and adding up
A thousand little lies
Thoughts and denials
Something isn't right
A weekend out of town
Another late night
Did you tell him that you loved him
And crawl in bed with me
Did he shake my hand and smile
Did you watch me nervously
It's not the years I've lost to you
It's not those desperate fights
It's not your eyes have turned to black
From tender rays of light
It's not the leaving lonely cry
That keeps me up at night
It's running through and adding up
A thousand little lies
Hush these haunted visions
Hush my wicked mind
Still my inhibitions
I'm stepping off the line
Walk around the corner babe
Sleep with one eye on
It's either you or me
And I might be moving on
It's not the years I've lost to you
It's not those desperate fights
It's not your eyes have turned to black
From tender rays of light
It's not the leaving lonely cry
That keeps me up at night
It's running through and adding up
A thousand little lies
A thousand little lies
A thousand little lies
