[Verse 1]
Should I blame it on my luck
If I never see the sun
I can feel you drag me down, down
While the pressure's building up
[Chorus]
I'm starting to believe the lie
It's all that's keeping me alive
Put me in the show, pick me to the bone 'til I'm dry
I'm starting to enjoy the pain
It's all that's keeping me awake
Dress me as a fool, tie me to the roof of your eyes
[Post-Chorus]
I'm starting to believe the lie
I'm starting to believe the lie
[Verse 2]
Will I buckle at my knees
When the crowd is holding me?
I can barely see the ground
But the air might set me free
[Chorus]
I'm starting to believe the lie
It's all that's keeping me alive
Put me in the show, pick me to the bone 'til I'm dry
I'm starting to enjoy the pain
It's all that's keeping me awake
Dress me as a fool, tie me to the roof of your eyes
[Post-Chorus]
I'm starting to believe the lie
I'm starting to believe the lie
[Outro]
Oooh, mmm
Oooh, mmm
Oooh, mmm
Mmm, mmm
JT Roach released Believe The Lie on Wed May 08 2019.
I used to think “Believe The Lie” was about believing the lies someone else told me, but the longer I sat with the demo the more I realized it was about the lies I tell myself.
