Live A Lie lyrics

[Intro]

How you gon' do that to me?

I can't believe this...

[Verse 1]

I wish I never ever got drunk that night

Made me foolish enough to come to your crib

Walked up the stairs and then I turned on the lights

Couldn't even speak because it happened so quick

I wish I never saw your punk ass that night

You always seem to calm me down with your lies

Even though I know better I try and I try

But you always have the perfect alibi

[Chorus]

If a lie gon' get me through

I rather not know the truth

If the truth gon' make me cry

I rather just live a lie

If a lie gon' get me through

I rather not know the truth

If the truth gon' make me cry

I rather just live a lie

[Verse 2]

I wish I never ever saw you that night

Right now I'd still be thinkin' we were OK

I called you just before I got on my flight

I say "I love you," And you tell me the same

If I could go back in time

I never woulda called your phone up

Never woulda dialed your number

Never woulda gotten that drunk

If I could go back in time

I never woulda gotten that tore

Never woulda asked for one more

Never woulda walked through your door

[Chorus]

If a lie gon' get me through

I rather not know the truth

If the truth gon' make me cry

I rather just live a lie

If a lie gon' get me through

I rather not know the truth

If the truth gon' make me cry

I rather just live a lie

[Bridge]

Easier to live

Like you don't see nuttin'

Even tho it ain't right

Harder to turn over in your bed and he ain't by your side

I think if I didn't walk in that night

And see you with my own eyes

I would still be livin' a lie

Just gotta know

Whatever you do

It's gon' come back to you

I can't believe this...

[Chorus]

If a lie gon' get me through

I rather not know the truth

If the truth gon' make me cry

I rather just live a lie
