I drift away to a place, another kind of life.
Take away the pain, I create my paradise.
Everything I've held has hit the wall.
What used to be yours isn't yours at all.
Falling apart and all that I'm asking,
is it a crime, am I overreacting?
Oh, he's under my skin.
Just give me something to get rid of him.
I've got a reason now to bury this alive,
another little white lie.
So what you had didn't fit among the pretty things.
Never fear, never fear - I now know where you've been.
Braids have been untied as ribbons fall away.
Never mind the consequence, my tears you'll taste.
Falling apart and all that I question,
is this a dream or is this my lesson?
Oh, he's under my skin.
Just give me something to get rid of him.
I've got a reason now to bury this alive,
another little white lie.
Oh, my permission to sin.
You might have started my reckoning.
I got a reason now to bury this alive,
another little white lie.
I don't believe I'll be alright.
I don't believe I'll be okay.
I don't believe how you threw me away.
I do believe you didn't try.
I do blame you for every lie.
When I look in your eyes, I don't see mine.
Oh, he's under my skin.
Just give me something to get rid of him.
I've got a reason now to bury this alive,
another little white lie.
A little, little white lie.
A little, little white lie.
Just a little white lie... I'll be alright.
Just a little white lie.
