Police Station

the guests have gone home
the bath has gone cold
the band, it plays a mellow tune
as the credits start to roll

my house is on fire
my hair smells of smoke
i'd live and die for a quiet night
inhale until i choke

oh, i'm sitting in the back of a cop car
maybe you're an outlier
but our love's not safe from the law is it, darling?
oh, honesty's not always kind
and now i wish you'd lied

i'll cut my pride
on the sharp edges of your tongue
i know i said forever, love
but forever's just so long

look at me like i'm cursed
i'll trip over my words
a conversation's not supposed to leave me feeling worse

now i'm sitting in the back of a cop car, baby
but you know i won't turn you in at the police station
oh, honesty is not a crime
but now i wish i'd lied

oh, i wish i'd lied instead of tryna call your bluff
and i wish that i had lied instead of almost opening up
oh, honesty is not a crime
but now i wish i'd lied

oh, i'm sitting in the back of a cop car baby
but you know i won't turn you in at the police station
oh, honesty's not always kind
and now i wish i'd lied

i wish i'd lied
