“White Lies” is an undeniable pop smash produced, written, and sung by Knightlight himself. Released on February 25, 2022, as the intro single to his EP due out later this year.
Knightlight says: “This song is so special to me. It’s the first song I’ve ever released that is fully self-written, prod...
[Verse 1]
You're left for dead?, I’ll come and pick you up
Just hit my phone, you can tell me what’s up, yeah
Look out for you when you are low on luck
Just hit my phone, I’m here to lift you up
You said “Oh My God, I think I’m in love" (Love)
"Just one kiss and I’m all hung up” (Up)
But I see through the lies, you're blinded by the highs
Do you remember the times?
[Pre-Chorus]
You cried on my shoulder, dried tears on my sweater
We’re just getting older, I hope it gets better
Remember I told you?
You thought I was playing, now your heart is broken
[Chorus]
I been up all night thinkin' bout' last night
Went through the good, now we’re stuck in the bad times
You put your heart at the stake, it’s just the first date
I can see through these white lies
Started to fall ever since y’all locked eyes
I’ll take the hit if you feel like you can’t fight
This is my oath, no I won’t let you choke
I can see through these white lies
[Post-Chorus]
White lies, dressed in disguise
White lies, white lies
White lies, dressed in disguise
I can see through these white lies (Lie, lie)
[Verse 2]
You’re heaven-sent, why can’t they just show up? (Yeah)
They fake a smile, I’m here to call their bluff (Bluff)
Cause you’re the only person on my mind
I’m just wishing they would treat you right
And you won’t see all the problems that they’ve caused
[Pre-Chorus]
But you cried on my shoulder, dried tears on my sweater
We’re just getting older, I hope it gets better
Remember I told you?
You thought I was playing, now your heart is broken
[Chorus]
I been up all night thinkin' bout' last night
Went through the good, now we’re stuck in the bad times
You put your heart at the stake, it’s just the first date
I can see through these white lies
Started to fall ever since y’all locked eyes
I’ll take the hit if you feel like you can’t fight
This is my oath, no I won’t let you choke (I won't let you choke)
I can see through these white lies
[Post-Chorus]
White lies, dressed in disguise (White lies)
White lies, white lies (White lies)
White lies, dressed in disguise (Mm)
I can see through these white lies (Lie, lie)
(White lies, white lies, mm)
