(You Don't Have To) Lie to Me
I sit all alone
With all of my cards on the table
There's nobody home
And you're not here
I don't really care
How can I escape?
All of this pain that I'm feeling
How can I erase it?
Not feel you again
I hope this will end
'Cause you can't undo all the ways you betray the truth
And you just want to feed on my loneliness
As it eats me piece by piece
You don't have to lie to me
I cannot absorb
All of your wounds that your healing
How can I ignore you?
Let you pull me apart
I won't let this start
How can I avoid
All of those times you deceived me
You get so annoyed when I call your bluff
Just give it up
'Cause you can't undo all the ways you betray the truth
And you just want to feed on my loneliness
As it eats me piece by piece
What can I say?
I'll just leave and let you play
With someone else
You can't be fake
'Cause believe me I can tell
You can be replaced
Well maybe not today
But somewhere along the way
You will learn
But I hope that it doesn't come
Too late
'Cause you can't undo all the ways you betray the truth
And you just want to feed on my loneliness
As it eats me on my loneliness
As it eats me on my loneliness
As it eats me piece by piece
You don't have to lie to me
Why do you lie to me?
You don't have to lie to me
Why do you lie to me?
You don't have to lie
With all of my cards on the table
There's nobody home
And you're not here
I don't really care
How can I escape?
All of this pain that I'm feeling
How can I erase it?
Not feel you again
I hope this will end
'Cause you can't undo all the ways you betray the truth
And you just want to feed on my loneliness
As it eats me piece by piece
You don't have to lie to me
I cannot absorb
All of your wounds that your healing
How can I ignore you?
Let you pull me apart
I won't let this start
How can I avoid
All of those times you deceived me
You get so annoyed when I call your bluff
Just give it up
'Cause you can't undo all the ways you betray the truth
And you just want to feed on my loneliness
As it eats me piece by piece
What can I say?
I'll just leave and let you play
With someone else
You can't be fake
'Cause believe me I can tell
You can be replaced
Well maybe not today
But somewhere along the way
You will learn
But I hope that it doesn't come
Too late
'Cause you can't undo all the ways you betray the truth
And you just want to feed on my loneliness
As it eats me on my loneliness
As it eats me on my loneliness
As it eats me piece by piece
You don't have to lie to me
Why do you lie to me?
You don't have to lie to me
Why do you lie to me?
You don't have to lie
