Lie for you

I know you have your reasons
I know you have your ways
Doesn’t make it any easier
To learn to walk again

And you said it would be better
As I swallowed back my tears
I could wait for you forever
I said what you wanted to hear

I gave my word
That I’d be fine
I promised you I’d never lie
But honestly, every time a thought of you
Crosses my mind

I lie through my teeth
I lie with a smile
I lie with the strength
Of a train running wild

I break the truth
Every time I breathe
With every lonely heartbeat
I lie, I lie for you

Beginnings are so easy
The middles such a climb
The endings are the worst of all
Someone’s always left behind

Do you miss me when it’s raining?
Is this yearning only mine?
I agreed because I love you
I was hoping that time might change your mind

I gave my word
That I’d be fine
I promised you I’d never lie
But honestly, every time a thought of you
Crosses my mind

I lie through my teeth
I lie with a smile
I lie with the strength
Of a train running wild

I break the truth
Every time I breathe
With every lonely heartbeat
I lie, I lie for you

I lie through my teeth
I lie with a smile
I lie with the strength
Of a train running wild

I break the truth
Every time I breathe
With every lonely heartbeat
I lie, I lie for you
I lie for you
I lie for you
I lie for you
