How u gon do that to me?

(siiigh)

I can't believe this

I wish I never ever

got drunk that nite

Made me foolish enough

to come to ur 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

ur punk ass that nite

You always seem

to calm me down with ur lies

Even though I know better

I try and I try

But u always

have the perfect alibi

Chorus:

If a lie gon get me thru

I rather not know the truth

If the truth gon make me cry

I rather just live a lie (x2)

I wish I never ever

saw u that nite

Rite now I'd still be

thinkin we were ok

I called u just before

I got on my flight

I say 'I love u'

And u tell me the same

If I could go back in time

I never woulda called ur phone up

Never woulda dialed ur 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 thru ur door

Chorus:

If a lie gon get me thru

I rather not know the truth

If the truth gon make me cry

I rather just live a lie (x2)

Easier to live

Like u don't see nuttin

Even tho it ain't rite

Harder to turn over in ur bed

and he ain't by ur side

I think

if I didn't walk in that nite

And see u with my own eyes

I would still be livin a lie

Just gotta know

Whatever u do

It's gon come back to u

I can't believe this

Chorus:

If a lie gon get me thru

I rather not know the truth

If the truth gon make me cry

I rather just live a lie
