Lying To Yourself

By Example

On Playing in the Shadows

[Verse 1]

I thought it was curtains for us, it all seemed so certain

You could say that the words in my version of things are the reason you're hurting

I thought it was curtains for us, it all seemed so certain

And I know that the reason I lied was a crime and it's kinda disturbing


[Pre-Hook]

And I'm happy to admit that I lied and I'll admit that I ruined you're life

You could never admit if you tried and you're so wrong, and you're so wrong

And I'm happy to admit that I lied and I'll admit that I ruined you're life

You could never admit if you tried that you're so wrong


[Hook]

Until you stop lying to yourself I'll never stop lying to you

And until I stop crying to myself, I'll never cry in front of you

I'll fight the tallest giants and break the rules of science

But I'll never stop lying to you and I've never said a word so true


[Verse 2]

It used to be a case of trying to impress her, I pestered her daily this lady arrested my heart

And I highly respected her take a lying detector but I'd probably pass the test

And I started this I'm not defending it but you asking me questions creating attention, detention, I miss all the tenderness

It's the truth but the truth has no end in this

[Bridge]

Our love was built on glass from day

We both we're too afraid to say

Our love was built on glass from day

Too afraid to say


[Hook]
