[Start]

Can't hit the wall hard enough
To cause the damage I need to breathe
Can't slam the door hard enough
To lock the anger out of me

I'm just not strong enough
To kick my raging heart to the curve
After all she's the part I want
When I've got need to burn

There's the fire I won't put out
There's the furnace underneath your feet
Like strutting on red hot coals
Trying to make your way home to me

Hope you know I won't lend my shoes
No, I won't help you there
No, no, I won't rain on you
I'll just stand right here and stare

Oh can't you hear the screams from the other side?
They saw how you sinned and they know who you did
My, my, isn't this exactly what I warned you from?
Mr. White Lie

You're not winning any points from me
With that charming attitude you've got
You see, I know how your brain works
I know it's nothing but a fake facade

It's not right to say I'm "angry"
It doesn't cover it to say I'm "mad"
No I'm raging, infuriated,
I'd chop you head off if the chance, I had

I don't suggest you come close to me
Don't risk the hot coals seeking for forgiveness
You won't get a second chance, you see
I thought you knew I was a right hard bitch

I've got my shotgun aimed at your head
I promise that my finger twitches
I'll tell the cops I didn't mean to shoot you dead
It was nothing but an accident

Oh, can't you hear the screams from the other side?
They saw how you sinned and they know who you did
My, my, isn't this exactly what I warned you from?
Mr. White Lie

I tried to warn you when you first saw her
I wouldn't take your mistakes so lightly
Cause of there's one thing that I'll murder for
It's the white rod of infidelity

Oh you buried it in my heart
But I tell you, I don't fall apart
Only bring you down too your knees
Don't you regret you ever crossed me?

Oh, can't you hear the screams from the other side?
They saw how you sinned and they know who you did
My, my, isn't this exactly what I warned you from?
Mr. White Lie

Oh, can't you hear the screams from the other side?
They saw how you sinned and they know who you did
My, my, isn't this exactly what I warned you from?
Mr. White Lie
