My head is tangled up in knots another heart you left to rot
You left your letter by the phone that read you’re never coming home
Those things you won’t concede they keep me on my knees
And now I start to buckle at the seams
Could you tell me a lie, lie
'Cause I don’t want to hear those words tonight, tonight
'Cause I can’t take the truth, baby give it a try
I’ve seen it a thousand times
I know those lips can lie
Could you tell me a lie, lie
'Cause I can’t take
I can’t take the truth from you, from you
I watched our castle turn to dust
Just one more girl that I can’t trust
Those things you won’t confess, no need to second guess
You broke my back and now there’s nothing left
Could you tell me a lie, lie
'Cause I don’t want to hear
Those words tonight, tonight
'Cause I can’t take the truth
Baby, give it a try, I’ve seen it a thousand times
I know those lips can lie
Could you tell me a lie, lie
'Cause I can’t take, I can’t take the truth
Could you tell me a lie, lie
'Cause I can’t take it, I can’t
Could you tell me a lie, lie
'Cause I can’t take the truth
Baby, give it a try, I’ve seen it a thousand times
I know those lips can lie
Could you tell me a lie, lie
'Cause I can’t take, I can’t take the truth from you
