[Verse 1]
I drift away to a place, another kind of life
Take away the pain, I create my paradise
Everything I've held has hit the wall
What used to be yours isn't yours at all
[Pre-Chorus]
Falling apart, and all that I'm asking
Is it a crime? Am I overreacting?
[Chorus]
Oh, he's under my skin
Just give me something to get rid of him
I've got a reason now to bury this alive
Another little white lie
[Verse 2]
So what you had didn't fit among the pretty things
Never fear, never fear, I know now where you've been
Braids have been un-tied, ribbons fall away
Leave the consequence, my tears you'll taste
[Pre-Chorus]
Falling apart and all that I question
Is this a dream or is this my lesson?
[Chorus]
Oh, he's under my skin
Just give me something to get rid of him
I've got a reason now to bury this alive
Another little white lie
[Bridge]
I don't believe I'll be all right
I don't believe I'll be ok
I don't believe how you throw me away
I do believe you didn't try
I do blame you for every lie
When I look in your eyes, I don't see mine
[Chorus]
Oh, he's under my skin
Just give me something to get rid of him
I've got a reason now to bury this alive
Another little white lie
[Outro]
Oh, my permission to sin
You might have started my reckoning
I've got a reason now to bury him alive
Another little white lie
