"Tell Me a Lie" Lyrics

Can't ever get it right
No matter how hard I try
And I've tried
When I put up a good fight
But your words cut like knives
And I'm tired

As you break my heart again this time

Tell me I'm a screwed up mess
That I never listen, listen
Tell me you don't want my kiss
That you're needing distance, distance

Tell me everything but don't you say
It's what you're missing, baby
If he's the reason that you're leaving me tonight
Spare me what you think and
Tell me a lie

Well, you're the charming type
That little twinkle in your eye
Gets me every time
And well there must have been a time
I was a reason for that smile

So keep in mind
As you take whats left of you and I

Tell me I'm a screwed up mess
That I never listen, listen
Tell me you don't want my kiss
That you're needing distance, distance

Tell me everything but don't you say
It's what you're missing, baby
If he's the reason that you're leaving me tonight
Spare me what you think and
Tell me a lie
Tell me a lie
Tell me a lie
Tell me a lie

Tell me I'm a screwed up mess
That I never listen, listen

Tell me you don't want my kiss
That you're needing distance, distance

Tell me everything but don't you say
It's what you're missing, baby
If he's the reason that you're leaving me tonight
Spare me what you think and
Tell me a lie
Tell me a lie
Tell me a lie
Tell me a lie
Tell me a lie
