Lie

Why would I lie to myself
If I know what the truth is
If I know that it’s useless
I would rather be toothless
Then pretend that it’s
Too late to have fun again

Why would I lie to you too
If I know the true meaning
Of what not make believing
Can do for the heart when
We’re willing to part with
All of the things that keep us
From living the life that
Could rip us apart

Open up the best part that
True love from the start
Can prevent all the hurt that
Is pushing us down
Time to put on your crown
Wear your beautiful truth
Why pretend to be something
You’re not

The most miraculous piece
Takes me down to my knees
Knowing I can be loved
Have you holding my hand
For the person I am truly
Loving you too babe like you’re
Wanting me to because fake
Will not prove anything
But to lose all the love that
We have if we trust in a lie
Knowing the truth
That we have is the best

So why would I lie
If I know what the truth is
If I know that it’s useless
I would rather be toothless
Then pretend that it’s
Too late to have fun again

Here’s to being with you babe

For Later

If a good lie
Can make people happy
Then what can
The truth do
Maybe we touch too deeply
Maybe our fingers get smaller
Perhaps our feet get colder
Do you know?
If a good lie
Can make people happy
Why should we
Tell the truth
Maybe our hearts
Get a little taller
Maybe our lives
Intertwining enthrall us
Perhaps our lips are
A bit more glossy
Do you know?

Kissing your heartbeat
Is better than missing out
On your truth

If a good lie
Can make you happy
What will our truth do
Will it console you
Would you feel better
If I untold you
If this is true
Then I will be your best storyteller
We can save the truth
For later
