Lie To Me

I've got nothing left, I'm lost without the sun

But I don't want the light to come

At least the night can be counted on

All my friends disappeared long ago

And I still hear them say they're here

But my smoke rings block my view

And I don't see them or you

I don't see the truth, I've got too many lies

I lost track of my lines and can't recall

I put my pedal to the metal to skip life when it hurt

But now the brakes are broken and there's no reverse

And I'm speeding by with a feeling inside

And it doesn't like the cage

The darkness rages in my eyes

And I just want to get so high

That all the little lights below will lead me back

To the place I never should have left by your side

I'm looking for someone that I'll never find

I'll love anybody that I believe

But my own lies left me shattered

Not too mention, I know my intentions

I think it's safe to say I've only got myself to blame

But no one else agrees, so I'll tell you I love you, darling

While slicing my arm so I can just feel something

So there's that reckless feeling as I head out tonight

My whole life's spent dealing with my broken mind

And as I close my eyes there's nowhere to hide

I can't move under weight of my own life

The mistakes I can't repent

The damage I can't mend

I just want someone to lie to me

Look me in my face and say you love me

When we both know it's fake

Because I don't think I can love anyone

Because I always over think

So I want something simple

A life based on a trust that I count on

A life without me in it

When all my dreams come true for you

But not for me-- I don't deserve it

So please lie to me and say it's okay

Then lower me into my grave

And leave me with whatever you say

I know my best intentions never end the way I meant

I chose pride over character and now I'm at my end

I think it's safe to say I'm not your hero

I can't save you from myself

And you're not the first to break her heart on me

I just want to say I'm sorry

Something not even I believe

But I want your truth

So lie to me
