Dave Hollister: I Lied

Sometimes you would wonder if someone else was on my mind.
I couldn't just tell you. How could I tell you? So I lied
Trying to save something I wasn't being true to. So blind.
I know that you know, but how did you know?

I lied even when I knew you knew the truth
I lied didn't know what you would do so
I lied to your face I lied
I lied even when I say the pictures on the bed
I lied you knew my every move and things I said
I lied to your face I lied

Late nights I would come in well after 3 and hadn't
called one time. You better not trip on me cause
I might leave you and walk away in spite of all the
things I put you through. I'm a fool, I know that you
know but how did you know

I lied even when I knew you knew the truth
I lied didn't know what you would do so
I lied to your face I lied
I lied even when I say the pictures on the bed
I lied you knew my every move and things I said
I lied to your face I lied

Noonday the mailman had a special delivery for you,
you opened it and screamed, oh cause you saw me checking out
of the Meridian with some floosie. I know that you know
but how did you know

I lied even when I knew you knew the truth
I lied didn't know what you would do so
I lied to your face I lied
I lied even when I say the pictures on the bed
I lied you knew my every move and things I said
I lied to your face I lied

I know the truth may let you down but it's better
than finding out from someone else.
I know the pain is still the same but I should've
been a man instead of fooling myself

I lied even when I knew you knew the truth
I lied didn't know what you would do so
I lied to your face I lied
I lied even when I say the pictures on the bed
I lied you knew my every move and things I said
I lied to your face I lied
