Matt Nathanson - Lie lyrics

rate me

I don't feel much like talking to you tonight

I'd rather not let you twist my words around again until they

give you something to feel

I would rather keep my distance, thank you very much

What do you want? Do you want my apologies?

Do you want me to tell you I'm wrong? Because I won't

I won t feed your melodrama and I won t be a part of your

game

But thank you very much

Please fix your own lie before you start attacking mine

You can call me your friend if that s the kind of security that

you need

We all look for it in different ways

Just don't persecute me, thank you very much

Please fix your own lie before you start attacking mine

don't you see that I will be all that you want me to be

don't you see that I will be all that you envisioned me to be

But I refuse to be raped

Until I confess all that you want me to hear

Then consoled and told that it will be alright

Because it s not all right, I don't have the energy and I don't

have the strength

To take on your emotional weight

So please fix your own lie before you start attacking mine
