Tell Me a Lie Lyrics by Josh Ross

Complicated

2024

[Verse 1]
You only walked into this dart board dive bar
Knowing good and damn well I'd be here
You're only sitting there laughing so hard
'Cause that's the only way you know how to fight tears
[Pre-Chrous]
And I know there ain't a chance
That you're with him, he's just a friend
I understand, you gotta do what you gotta do, baby
But if it's just me instead, in my head
Way off, dead wrong with everything I been sayin'
[Chorus]
Then tell me a lie
Tell me you ain't as good as gone
Halfway holding on to me
Ease my mind
And Lord knows the whiskey ain't doing jack
Won't you tell me that it ain't quite what it looks like
And it's not what you think
But I know you and I know I don't wanna believe that
A truth in your eyes, I know
So just for tonight
Tell me a lie
[Verse 2]
Just tell me that your friends put you up to it
They said you'd get me seeing red in that dress
You look like you know just what you're doing
Taking looks my way just to make me a mess
Ooh
[Pre-Chrous]
Come on, won't you tell me I ain't no fool
Show me any kind of proof
Even if you have to
[Chorus]
Then tell me a lie
Tell me you ain't as good as gone
Halfway holding on to me
Ease my mind
And Lord knows the whiskey ain't doing jack
Won't you tell me that it ain't quite what it looks like
And it's not what you think
But I know you and I know I don't wanna believe that
A truth in your eyes, I know
So just for tonight
[Bridge]
Tell me that you want me back
I'm the best you ever had
The worst thing you ever did was say goodbye, -ey
So go on and tell me
[Chrous]
Then tell me a lie
Tell me you ain't as good as gone
Still holding on to me
Ease my mind
And Lord knows the whiskey ain't doing jack
Won't you tell me that it ain't quite what it looks like
And it's not what you think
But I know you and I know I don't wanna believe that
A truth in your eyes, no, no, no
So just for tonight
Then tell me a lie
[Outro]
Then tell me a lie
Then tell me a lie
Then tell me a lie
