Lie a Little Better
I just missed my exit
Last night I lost my keys
I'm fumbling over the words, I
Don't feel a bit like me these days
I would be a liar
If I said I was fine
But I can't help being honest
And I know now is not the time, 'cause
The truth is I'm falling to pieces
Anytime that you're around
Trouble is, the truth keeps slipping out
Whoa-oh
Can't seem to hide what I'm feeling
Can't believe what I'm saying out loud
Truth is, there's no turning back now
I guess I shoulda learned how to lie a little better
Whoa, oh-oh, oh-oh, ooh
Whoa, oh-oh, oh-oh, ooh
Been trying to cover
This heart out on my sleeve
Been set on playing this down, but
I think you're catching onto me, yeah
Truth is I'm falling to pieces
Anytime that you're around
Trouble is, the truth keeps slipping out
Whoa-oh
Can't seem to hide what I'm feeling
Can't believe what I'm saying out loud
Truth is, there's no turning back now
Well, I guess I should've learned how to lie a little better
Whoa, oh-oh, oh-oh, ooh
Whoa, oh-oh, oh-oh, ooh
I'm losing this battle
With every word I say
Wish I'd had a better lesson
Of not giving myself away, 'cause
The truth is I'm falling to pieces
Anytime that you're around
Trouble is, the truth keeps slipping out
Can't seem to hide what I'm feeling
Can't believe what I'm saying out loud
Truth is, there's no turning back now
Well, I guess I should've learned how to lie a little better
Whoa, oh-oh, oh-oh, ooh
Whoa, oh-oh, oh-oh, ooh
Whoa, oh-oh, oh-oh, ooh
Whoa, oh-oh, oh-oh, ooh
Last night I lost my keys
I'm fumbling over the words, I
Don't feel a bit like me these days
I would be a liar
If I said I was fine
But I can't help being honest
And I know now is not the time, 'cause
The truth is I'm falling to pieces
Anytime that you're around
Trouble is, the truth keeps slipping out
Whoa-oh
Can't seem to hide what I'm feeling
Can't believe what I'm saying out loud
Truth is, there's no turning back now
I guess I shoulda learned how to lie a little better
Whoa, oh-oh, oh-oh, ooh
Whoa, oh-oh, oh-oh, ooh
Been trying to cover
This heart out on my sleeve
Been set on playing this down, but
I think you're catching onto me, yeah
Truth is I'm falling to pieces
Anytime that you're around
Trouble is, the truth keeps slipping out
Whoa-oh
Can't seem to hide what I'm feeling
Can't believe what I'm saying out loud
Truth is, there's no turning back now
Well, I guess I should've learned how to lie a little better
Whoa, oh-oh, oh-oh, ooh
Whoa, oh-oh, oh-oh, ooh
I'm losing this battle
With every word I say
Wish I'd had a better lesson
Of not giving myself away, 'cause
The truth is I'm falling to pieces
Anytime that you're around
Trouble is, the truth keeps slipping out
Can't seem to hide what I'm feeling
Can't believe what I'm saying out loud
Truth is, there's no turning back now
Well, I guess I should've learned how to lie a little better
Whoa, oh-oh, oh-oh, ooh
Whoa, oh-oh, oh-oh, ooh
Whoa, oh-oh, oh-oh, ooh
Whoa, oh-oh, oh-oh, ooh
