Why Can’t You Just Lie

[Verse 1]
Waking up, cold sweats, do I call you or not?
I'm afraid of what's next, I don't know when to stop
You decide, you decide, you decide
Draw a line for me and just pick a side
So much gray all around me, I don't think I'll find a color
I'm insane to lose a girl like you, don't think I'll find another
And suddenly, suddenly I'm questioning, I'm questioning

[Chorus]
Why can't you just lie?
Like I did a thousand times
Why you never went and broke mine?
How you never go and switch sides?
Why can't I just die?
So I don't gotta see you cry
So I don't gotta lose what's mine
So tell me girl, why can't you just, why can't you just lie?

[Verse 2]
Underwater for too long and I don't think I'm gonna make it
I already knew that I was in the wrong, don't gotta fake it
You give an inch, I take a mile
You know that I would miss your smile
You want me to go and change
You know it gon' end the same
I don't wanna put you through it over and over again
Went and caused you too much pain
Tired of playing this game
Ooh

[Chorus]
Why can't you just lie?
Like I did a thousand times
Why you never went and broke mine?
How you never go and switch sides?
Why can't I just die?
So I don't gotta see you cry
So I don't gotta lose what's mine
So tell me girl, why can't you just, why can't you just lie?

[Bridge]
What's the right move? Fuck if I know
How do I get through to your soul?
Whoa, ooh

[Chorus]
Why can't you just lie?
Like I did a thousand times
Why you never went and broke mine?
How you never go and switch sides?
Why can't I just die?
So I don't gotta see you cry
So I don't gotta lose what's mine
So tell me girl, why can't you just, why can't you just lie?
