Violet didn't go to school the next day, she didn't even sleep. She spent the whole day producing her songs and recording them. She even made a mini CD with the 4 new songs, 'Stress Me Out', 'Kinda Numb', 'Hung up on You', and 'Drown.' 

Luke poofed in her room with a smile and 2 slips of paper scaring the crap out of Violet. "What the hell Luke?" she lets out. "you weren't with Julie today." Luke says. "Yeah, I know." She gives him the cold shoulder. "You look terrible." He looks at her. "That is definitely what a girl loves to hear." she smiles sarcastically. "look, I'm sorry. I never should've bailed. I even promised not to." Luke apologizes. 

Violet just looks at him. 

"Here, just listen."

Silence.

"you dropped this page with a song that didn't seem finished, so... I finished it for you. I really hope you like it." he hands her the lyric page.

He goes to her piano and starts playing. Also, secretly pressing what he hopes is the record button on her laptop. He motions her to begin.

Violet:

You don't understand
I'm not ever like this
I can hold my breath
Say I'll be alright
But kinda hard to think
When I can't feel a thing
Tell me to my face
Already heard it last week
Driving me insane
It's hitting real badly
Tell me what's her name, yeah

Said you'd never, why'd you ever
Lie to me baby, lie, lie to me
Lie to me baby, lie, lie to me
Lie to me baby, lie, lie to me, yeah
Said you'd never, why'd you ever
Lie to me baby, lie, lie to me
Lie to me baby, lie, lie to me
Lie to me baby, lie, lie to me, yeah
(Lie to me)

Luke:

After everything we've been through you come crying to me
You said you'd never lie, so why you lying to me?
I gave you my trust my heart and everything inside of me
Tell me how'd you pay me back? You made a fool out of me

Can't you see what you're doing? Left me, broken in pieces
Got me feeling so stupid, guess I needed a reason
To let go
I don't wanna hear lies anymore

Said you'd never, why'd you ever
Lie to me baby, lie, lie to me
Lie to me baby, lie, lie to me
Lie to me baby, lie, lie to me
(Lie to me)
Said you'd never, why'd you ever
Lie to me baby, lie, lie to me
Lie to me baby, lie, lie to me
Lie to me baby, lie, lie to me

Violet:

I've been tryna collect all my thoughts
It's all said and done
Just don't feel the same
(Don't feel the same)

Violet and Luke:

Don't try to tell me that I was wrong
You was the one lying all along

Luke:

I think you just want somebody else to take the blame

Violet and Luke:

Said you'd never, why'd you ever
Lie to me baby, lie, lie to me
Lie to me baby, lie, lie to me
Lie to me baby, lie, lie to me, yeah
(Lie to me, yeah)
Said you'd never, why'd you ever
Lie to me baby, lie, lie to me
Lie to me baby, lie, lie to me
Lie to me baby, lie, lie to me, yeah

Why you gotta lie to me

"I..." Violet smiles, "I love it."

Luke grins. "Thank you.
