I hear the lines on the telegraph 

Buzzin' my head, I have to shut them out 

My ears to the ground, but I try to stand up 

Straighten out 

Forget my doubt 

‘Cause I couldn't bear to lose you 

You're the only one I care for 

But I can't lock out the rumors 

I shut my eyes so I won't see because 



One little lie can go a long way 

One little lie can go a long way 

Would I learn to trust again someday? 



I try to ask but my tongue gets tied 

When I guess the answer 

If you turned your head away from me 

I know I'd stand there forever 

Caught out in time by a line 

That I wanted you to deny 

And you'd laughed and laugh ‘til I cried and cried 

I can't shut out the rumors 

Burning inside me all the time 



REPEAT CHORUS 



Every day is turning away 

I feel something new 

If I can't put my trust in you then 

We've got nothing worth hanging on to 



REPEAT CHORUS TO FADE
