The Lie Lyrics by Eleri Ward

Prism

2020

[Verse 1]
Though I know the truth I think I'll make up stories
And I'll tell them to myself
You barely make the grade and he may say he loves you
But he'll leave you soon enough
Why do I love the lie? (Ohh Ohh)
'Cause it's killin' me inside (Ohh Ohh)
[Chorus]
Tellin' lies to myself just feel like I'm alive
Isn't good but it feels like it should cause it gets me high
Oh
I feel like I'm fallin'
I feel I'm fallin'
I feel like I'm fallin
I fell I'm falling apart
(Ooo Ooo)
[Verse 2]
Tryin' to stay humble so I beat my heart up
Now addicted to the give
So it starts to speak the myth that I'm no good
It satisfies me I admit
Why do I love the lie? (Ohh Ohh)
'Cause it's killin' me inside (Ohh Ohh)
[Chorus]
Tellin' lies to myself just feel like I'm alive
Isn't good but it feels like it should cause it gets me high
Oh
I feel like I'm fallin'
I feel I'm fallin'
I feel like I'm fallin'
I fell I'm falling apart
I'm protecting myself from the truth cause the truth is hard
(Ooo Ooo)
I dont want the suprise of a knife goin' through the heart
(Ooo Ooo)
I feel like I'm fallin'
I feel I'm fallin'
I feel like I'm fallin'
I fell I'm falling apart
[Bridge]
Fear of the vulnerable
I've gotten too comfortable
Here within the dark side of my mind
Habits can only die hard
This one just might leave a scar
But I got a break me off the line!
[Outro]
Bein' good to myself even though it can feel like hell
Tell the truth so I heal all the bruises I gave myself
So what if I'm fallin'
I know I'm fallin'
It's fine if I'm fallin'
I'm fine with fallin' apart
(Ooo Ooo, Ahh)
(Ooo Ooo, Ahh)
(Ooo Ooo, Ahh)
(Ooo Ooo, Ahh)
