The Whitest Lie

If I lied
Said I was fine
Would that mean anything?
The more you know the less you'll eventually find out
Like in school they never said that the world was split up into sides
And they call them those who kill and those who die

And if living is a vice
I wish no virtue
What could go wrong?
Hold you close tonight
Say that it's alright
Even if it's not
Of all the lies I've told in my life
To promise I would never leave you alone would be the whitest one

What providence what recompense to amount to anything
But uneasy lies the head that wears the crown
To which lie do you subscribe because you have to choose a pill
If you haven't learned that yet my friend you will

And if living is a vice
I wish no virtue
What could go wrong
Hold you close tonight
Say that it's alright
Even if it's not
Of all the lies I've told in my life
To promise I would never leave you alone would be the whitest one

Be honest
Cause heaven knows if I fail at this I'd probably fail at anything
My head it spins
I think about where I'd end up if nobody was listening

Hold you close tonight
Say that it's alright
Even if it's not
Of all the lies I've told in my life
To promise I would never leave you alone would be the whitest one
