​don’t lie to me

[Songtext zu „don't lie to me“]

[Verse 1]
You were blind, I know you couldn't see it
But in the end, it just feels like you've cheated right to my face
You only did what you did for a reason, yeah
You tried to open up, but you were scared to lose what we have

[Pre-Chorus]
Why, why
Did I tell you things that I didn't believe in?
I lied
Tried to protect you by hiding my feelings
We got tied
All up in this lie I created to keep you
On my side
Keepin' it inside of me isn't worth it

[Chorus]
Don't lie to me
Don't you do what I've done to you
Don't lie to me
I promise I, I know it's bad for you
Don't lie to me
I don't wanna go back to how we both used to be
Oh nah nah, one thing I know
We won't lie 'round here no more

[Verse 2]
I don't know who we think we're deceivin', yeah
Tell me, why does it feel like we need to hide what we are?
We weren't honest and now we're both bleedin', yeah
Let's leave the lies in the past, so we never do it again

[Pre-Chorus]
Why, why
Did I tell you things that I didn't believe in?
I lied
Tried to protect you by hiding my feelings
We got tied
All up in this lie I created to keep you
On my side
Keepin' it inside of me isn't worth it

[Chorus]
Don't lie to me
Don't you do what I've done to you
Don't lie to me
I promise I, I know it's bad for you
Don't lie to me
I don't wanna go back to how we both used to be
Oh nah nah, one thing I know
We won't lie 'round here no more

[Post-Chorus]
Don't lie to me, don't do what I have done, oh-oh
Don't lie to me, I'm telling you, it's wrong, oh-oh
Tell the truth, that's all we gotta do, oh-oh
Oh na na, one thing I know
We won't lie 'round here no more

[Bridge]
I know we can, we can be so much better
Now that we have learned to forgive each other
We only did it this way to save all that we have, all that we have
It's been hard, but look at us now, us now

[Chorus]
Don't lie to me
Don't you do what I've done to you
Don't lie to me
I promise I, I know it's bad for you
Don't lie to me
I don't wanna go back to how we both used to be
Oh nah nah, one thing I know
We won't lie 'round here no more

[Chorus]
Don't lie to me
Don't you do what I've done to you
Don't lie to me
I promise I, I know it's bad for you
Don't lie to me
I don't wanna go back to how we both used to be
Oh nah nah, one thing I know
We won't lie 'round here no more
