paroles de chanson Lying - Ben Kessler

I write a lot about stars never take the time to look at them
I write a lot about dreams but I never really have them
I write a lot about love but I never even had one
I write a lot about you but I barely even know you

It makes me feel better
Acting like you don't make me nervous
Buying you drinks like I can afford them
It makes me feel better
Saying I'm fine when I'm really hurting
Keeping things perfect on the surface

Oh I've been lying to myself
It's easier to love you
When I pretend to be someone else
And I'd be lying to myself
To say that I deserve you
When I know that I'm scared as hell

I talk a lot about Rome but I know we'll never get there
I talk a lot about the future but I'm barely standing right here
You try to make the moment last with your hand in my hair
I try to tell you how I feel but all I ever do is stare

Oh I've been lying to myself
It's easier to love you
When I pretend to be someone else
And I'd be lying to myself
To say that I deserve you
When I know that I'm scared as hell

I've been lying, lying, lying
I've been lying, lying, lying
I've been lying, lying, lying
I've been lying, lying, lying

Oh I've been lying to myself
It's easier to love you
When I pretend to be someone else
And I'd be lying to myself
To say that I deserve you
When I know that I'm scared as hell

Would you love me any less
If I told you the truth instead
Would you love me any less
