[Verse 1]
There is a hungry child living inside of me
See, I've always been wild, had a sensitive side, it's part of me
I'd set a forest on fire just to stay in denial, don't wanna see
Just tell me it's fine, give me a line, say anything
[Pre-Chorus]
Say anything, say anything
Say anything, say anything
Say anything, say anything
Say anything to keep me from feelin'
Say anything, say anything
Say anything, say anything
Say anything, say anything
Say anything to keep me from feelin'
[Chorus]
Tell me lies, tell me lies
Tell me lies, tell me lies
Lie to me (Ooh-ooh)
Lie to me (Ooh-ooh)
Yeah, lie to me (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Lie to me
[Verse 2]
Thеre is a hungry ghost living inside of me
And nobody can know 'bout thе spirit shaped hole that's haunting me
And I'll never say "No" if it means you won't go, don't leave, baby
Say I'm the one, I'm your true love, say anything
[Pre-Chorus]
Say anything, say anything
Say anything, say anything
Say anything, say anything
Say anything to keep me from feelin'
Say anything, say anything
Say anything, say anything
Say anything, say anything
Say anything to keep me from feelin'
[Chorus]
Tell me lies, tell me lies
Tell me lies, tell me lies
Lie to me (Ooh-ooh)
Lie to me (Ooh-ooh)
Yeah, lie to me (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
