I want you to lie to me

Tell me you love me

Smile to my face

And let me know how you truly don't feel

Cuz maybe

Just for a little while

I'll be human again

Feeling all those warm things I like to feel

When I'm smiling to the world

Hiding somewhere deep inside

The pain I just can't feel

Until I stab myself over and over

With that knife you forgot to take away from me

Last night when I wanted to kill myself

For not being everything you wanted

Or anything you needed

But that's just me

On the low end of a mood swing

That'll take me out over the ocean

And drop me right in the middle

To a world where I don't have to think about you anymore

And all the lies you won't tell me.
