Little White Lie Lyrics by Peter Lerman

Brooklynite

0

{ TREY }
I never knew that you'd be so different
From the girl I imagined in my head
{ ASTROLASS }
My hobbies are just like--regular human citizen things
{ TREY }
I thought I'd stare forever at your poster
But the real you is standing here instead
{ ASTROLASS }
Raising chickens, piggling, anything really normal
{ TREY }
How do I act?
I'm so unsure of what to do
I should pretend I don't know every single fact about you
This little white lie
It's why you're standing here
It's why you entertain this engineer
But you would take off
If you only knew how many leagues you are above me
So I won't tell you
Now please forgive my little white lie
{ ASTROGIRL }
So that's pretty much my story, just a normal Brooklyn girl.
{ TREY }
You're way my impressive than all the Brooklyn girls I know. And I know hundred of girls.
{ ASTROGIRL }
Look at that blank expression that he's wearing
He is so not aware that I am me
{ TREY }
I did feel bad turning down that job at NASA
{ ASTROGIRL }
I know I should be honest
But since I'm being honest
There are some things I don't want you to see
{ TREY }
But I was just a freshman at MIT
{ ASTROGIRL }
How do I act?
I'm so unsure of what to say
If I pretend it's just so I don't scare you away
This little white lie
So nice he doesn't know
He'll step into my boots and then I'll go
This feeling's so right
Identity gone
It hurts no one so I will not let on
Now please forgive my little white lie
{ TREY AND ASTROGIRL }
Do not mess this up now
There's truth in how you feel deep inside
{ TREY }
You're so normal
{ ASTROGIRL }
You're so interesting
{ TREY AND ASTROGIRL }
Do not let your guard down
Just act like you have not a thing to hide
This little white lie
Feels so right to me
It seems more real than when I'm acting honestly
I didn't think
( TREY }
This would go so well
{ TREY AND ASTROGIRL }
I didn't think
{ ASTROGIRL }
This would be the guy
{ TREY AND ASTROGIRL }
I think you're great if you can't tell
So please forgive my little white lie.
