What a lonely way to lie

Pretend that you're alright

Then take a handful of white pills to make you smile

You haven't been yourself at all

Though I know it's not your fault

They left you wondering just who the hell you are

There's a box in your heart where you keep your feelings hidden

It's been carefully locked shut

And this house that you call home feels more like a prison

Say you're happier now but, but I figured you out

I know you swore to tell the truth but the truth is hiding

And every smile that you sell baby I'm not buying

The only way you feel alive is when you feel like dying

And you won't look me in the eyes because you know you're lying

Lying, lying, lying

You're lying, lying, lying

Out in the deep end

Always on defense

Yeah, you're scared to let your own eyes see you cry

So what could it hurt to breathe your breath

Scream it out until nothing's left

No matter what the voices said

There's better days ahead

There's a box in your heart where you keep your feelings hidden

It's been carefully locked shut

And this house that you call home feels more like a prison

Say you're happier now but, but I figured you out

I know you swore to tell the truth but the truth is hiding

And every smile that you sell baby I'm not buying

The only way you feel alive is when you feel like dying

And you won't look me in the eyes because you know you're lying

Lying, lying, lying

You're lying, lying, lying, lying

You're lying, lying, lying, lying

You're lying, lying, lying
