[Post-Chorus 1]

Slowly lie to me
Like you do when you tell the truth
Slowly lie to me
Like I need you to do so I can hear you say
Something that sounds right
[Post-Chorus 2]
Slowly lie to me
Like I need you to do when you tell the truth
And tell me what to believe, and tell me what to deny

[Chorus]
Slowly lie to me
Like you do when you tell the truth
Slowly lie to me
Like I need you to do so I can hear you say
Something that sounds right
