I Swear I'll Lie

I only ever said it 'cause I thought it'd make us last
But the memory of us now only exists in the past
Liking every guy that's bad for me and seems to care
I'm growing into a woman, but life ain't fair

And your words burn me like blades on your tongue
And your words messed me, so bad, I think you're sorry that

Every brunette is your type, oh
Five years gone by, yet nothing's different
Baby, it could've been right, oh
But you run and hide, I told you I'm not perfect
Can you please tell me that you regretted every moment that you took my walls down
And I let you inside
Stupid boy, you swore you'd take it to your grave
But you told them anyway
So when I meet a guy, I swear I'll lie

I hope your parents look at you and see the beautiful mess that they made
And I kept my mouth shut so a fight didn't start
But don't you dare say, "oh, we just didn't work out"
'cause you were crying on the phone, and now I don't know if I'll make it out

'cause your words burn me like blades on your tongue
And your words messed me, so bad, just say you're sorry that

Every brunette is your type, oh
Five years gone by, I guess we're different
Maybe in another life, oh
But you run and hide, I told you I'm not perfect
I need you to tell me that you cherish every moment that you took my walls down
And I let you inside
Stupid boy, you were scared that I'd get away
So tell me, are you okay?
If I were to meet a guy, I swear I'll lie

You came out a bad guy, but I'm the one who's left
Wondering if we're over, then why can't we be friends
I hate it when you fire shots, like I wasn't your whole world
Swore you'd buy me a ring, everyone knows that we were good
And you don't say that stuff, if you didn't really think it
So why do you turn around and tell me that you didn't need it, oh
I swear I'll lie
