Lie To Me - Week Four - Day Three



Hi there

I did this one pretty quick. Sorry if it shows. I'm heading to an open stage at Rasputin's
Have a great night.
Enjoy.

Lie To Me

You don’t lie much
But you can fake love
Just enough to fill your needs

If you’re willing
And if I’m lonely
I won’t care if you lie to me

We all survive on what we hide
We close our mouths and then our eyes
Never thinking that we’ll find
The empty place where the truth lies
Truth won’t lie
But you can lie to me

You don’t want much
You don’t need love
You just want some company

“Ever-afters”
Become disasters
Better off if you lie to me

We can’t deny the years we tried
To close the wounds of compromise
Echoes through the hall of blame
With all those crocodile goodbyes
And no replies
So you can lie to me

Honesty has a way of leaking through
The cracks of life
Every time I drop my guard
They infiltrate the
Very heart of mine
Can’t you just lie to me?

We can’t decide we’re the kind
To close our hearts and then our minds
Without the truth we tossed aside
Will our deception make us blind?
You’d better lie
You better lie
You better lie to me

You want my opinion.
Countrify it. Lead should be beefy electric slide.
Root fifth bassline.
kick snare, kick snare.
And for Gods sake, where is the mandolin?
