I lied when I said I didn't care
Rejection was something I just couldn't bear
I lied when I said I didn't feel
This hole in my heart's getting harder to heal
I was lying if I drifted away
I want to be close to you now and every day
I was lying if I said the wrong thing
Because it's not what I wanted the words to mean
I can't lie about what I see in you
Kindness, intelligence, and handsomeness too
I can't lie about what I want for you
A life of stress and loneliness wouldn't do
I'm sorry for all of the times I've lied
I can't lie anymore, believe me, I've tried
I guess lying's my way of telling the truth
I'm lying right now when I say I don't love you
