White Lies

I, I'll lay it on the line, but baby give me time
I cannot change what's stood in the mirror
See, I hold a smoking gun, been living on the run
Shot it long ago, but right here, right now
I don't think they'll ever understand
I'm too weak to be a bad man
Holding on for dear life, yeah
I lied my face off too much most days
Talking in my sleep instead of talking to you
You'll like me better with my head in the ground
I need some relief, so throw me a lifeline
They talk with words, I shout white lies
Can I breathe?
I don't know what I need
I'm counting down from three
Oh, I just wanna drown in the river
But hey, I know I'm not as young
Stopped playing games for fun
I wanna be a man she'll admire right now
I don't think they'll truly understand
That I am really not the same man
Been waiting here forever
If I stop right now, have I stopped too late?
Talking in my sleep instead of talking to you
You'll like me better with my head in the ground
I need some relief, so throw me a lifeline
They talk with words, I shout with white lies
She was the voice inside my head
And she's only getting clearer
I can't wake up when I feel dead
Now I wake up with the shivers
'Cause I've been talking in my sleep instead of talking to you
You'll like me better with my head in the ground
I need some relief, so throw me a lifeline
They talk with words, I shout white lies
Talking in my sleep instead of talking to you
'Cause I need some relief, so throw me a lifeline
They talk with words, I shout white lies
White lies, white lies
Whoa, oh
