Lyrics

White Lie

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I was sixteen years old

When the silence took hold

And it never went again

Still feel it sometimes

When the weather's unkind

And my lover's lips are thin

But then I get out

Tell myself the white lie

That my faith would make everything alright

That I walk on water

Like when I was younger

I'm a failure, I'm a disaster

And I don't wanna be anything else

I'm a loner, I'm a loser

And I don't wanna be anything else

It's in London, most sleeps

It swarms around me

And it comes in waves again

Yeah, I'll do what I'm told

Let the future unfold

As I'm thrown down the rabbit hole

But then I get out

Tell myself the white lie

That my faith would make everything alright

That I walk on water

Like when I was younger

I'm a failure, I'm a disaster

And I don't wanna be anything else

I'm a loner, I'm a loser

And I don't wanna be anything else

Do you feel the same to me?

Do you feel the same to me?

'Cause I don't wanna be like you

I don't wanna be like you

I don't wanna be anything else

I don't wanna be like you

I don't wanna be like you

I don't wanna be anything else

I'm a failure, I'm a disaster

And I don't wanna be anything else
