Good Will Hunting movie - Why Do I Lie? lyrics

rate me

Song by Luscious Jackson<br /><br>

I would love to be better<br>

I would love to be free<br>

I would love to be perfect<br>

When you look at me<br>

But instead I'm still crying<br>

Yes instead I'm still lyin'<br>

Sad to say I'm still tryin'<br>

Not to be me <br>

When I see all the weakness<br>

That I turned into sickness<br>

I still think I can slide<br>

Just fine on the ice<br>

It's not easy to be honest<br>

Sometimes I'm just astonished<br>

Heartache can lead to the tru--<br>

<br>

Why do I lie?<br>

Is it just to get by?<br>

If I give up my lines would I die?<br>

If fortunes are favored<br>

Then I am enlabored<br>

And I'm tryin' so hard to leave lyin' behind.<br>

(lyin' behind)<br>

<br>

I don't want to be hazy<br>

I don't think that I'm crazy<br>

But I've had some moments where I am not sure<br>

And if you can forgive me<br>

For just being human<br>

Then I will try harder<br>

To keep my words pure<br>

I could be on the border<br>

It could be a disorder<br>

But honestly I think that I can't come clean<br>

All of my stories<br>

Might even be boring<br>

If I could tell you<br>

What they all mean<br>

<br>

Why do I lie?<br>

Is it just to get by?<br>

If I give up my lives would I die?<br>

If fortunes are favored<br>

Then I am in labor<br>

And I'm tryin' so hard to be (lyin' to hide) (?)<br>

<br>
