Could you please just put the coffee down?
It's two in the mornin' and I'm already ready for bed
Went to turn the TV down
Hand me the remote, but both of the batteries were dead
Couldn't make decisions
Thought I needed your permission
So I don't drink black coffee now
Don't know how it didn't taste so bitter back then
And if your friends all see it, your boyfriend sees it
Even your mama sees it, maybe you should believe it
And I ain't got no reason to be mistreated at all
So why do I, why do I, why do I lie
Lie about you?
Why do I, why do I, why do I try
Pretendin' I'm cool when I'm not?
'Cause everyone told me what I couldn't see
I tried to deny you were hurtin' me
I know I shouldn't, so why do I lie
Lie about you?
Would you please just put the bottle down?
You already blacked out, fucked up, saying shit that you regret
I try my best to zone it out
But we both know that you're just gonna do this shit again
I'm done submitting to all your fucked up decisions
So I don't even go out now
Don't know how trust and love felt so different back then
And if your friends all see it, your girlfriend sees it
Even your mama sees it, maybe you should believe it
And I ain't got no reason to be mistreated at all, at all
So why do I, why do I, why do I lie (lie)
Lie about you?
Why do I, why do I, why do I try (try)
Pretendin' I'm cool when I'm not?
'Cause everyone told me what I couldn't see
I tried to deny you were hurtin' me
I know I shouldn't, so why do I lie (lie)
Lie about you?
Lie, lie, lie about you (so why do I lie?)
Lie, lie, lie about you
Lie about you, cry about you
Promise I won't change another thing about myself for you
'Cause it's true, I wish it's never happened at all
Lie about you, cry about you
If you were me then what the fuck would you do?
'Cause without you, this never would've happened at all, at all
So why do I, why do I, why do I lie (lie)
Lie about you? (so why do I lie?)
Why do I, why do I, why do I try (try)
Pretendin' I'm cool when I'm not?
'Cause everyone told me what I couldn't see
I tried to deny you were hurtin' me
I know I shouldn't, so why do I lie (so why do I lie?)
Lie about you? (why do I lie?)
I don't wanna lie about you
I don't wanna cry about you
I don't wanna lie about you
I don't wanna cry (about you)
Lie, lie, lie about you
I know I shouldn't so why do I lie
Lie about you?
