If You're Gonna Lie

Tate's View

I stare at the full glass and sigh.

I poured you a glass of wine
And drank it for the second time

Y/n said she'd be home 3 hours again.

Then 7 PM turned to 10
I'm still alone and my lips are red
But not in a good way

The door opens and Y/n comes in.

And you're about to walk in that door

"I'm sorry, I'm late. I got a drink—" Y/n says.

And say some shit you said before

"... with some of the guys but I had to take Chris home. That guy doesn't know when to stop." I say.

You're getting so repetitive
I'm finishing your sentences

"Is that what you were gonna say?" I ask.

But not in a good way

"Fuck, I'm sorry. I—" Y/n says.

I kinda like it when you hurt me
'Cause you come over saying sorry

"I made dinner." I say.

So I put up with your lies just to have you for the night, baby

"What?" Y/n asks.

"I made dinner." I say.

"Oh... right." She says.

Y/n knows that I never believe her but just accepts the fact that I won't say anything about it.

I kinda like it when you hurt me
I start believing all your stories

If it keep letting her get away with it, she'll have no reason to leave me. Believe it or not, I'd rather be lied to than alone.

But I'd rather hear you lie than to hear you say goodbye to me

"I'll be in bed." I say.

So if you're gonna lie, do it in my bed
If you're gonna lie, at least do it in my bed

Y/n nods and I go upstairs.

So if you're gonna lie, do it in my bed
If you're gonna lie, make it worth it (Yeah)

4 hours later...

Y/n mumbles and I sigh.

"Sarah... stop... no." Y/n mumbles.

You cut me down, you cut me deep
You say so many names in your sleep

I sit up and stare at her. Y/n giggles and stops suddenly.

Yeah, I can tell you've been having fun

Y/n starts snoring and I lay back down.

Sarah? Sarah McDaniels? Her brother in-law's sister? No, can't be — she's been overseas for 3 years.

I don't recognize a single one

"Who the fuck is Sarah?" I mumble.

Fuck you been doing? Mmm

"Hmm?" Y/n mumbles.

"Nothing." I say rubbing Y/n's back.

Time Skip

"I really think I should come clean about everything. I'm sorry—" Y/n says.

I kinda like it when you hurt me
'Cause you come over saying sorry
