So I lied
Okay, so sue me
I created this whole mess
I've been taking notes forever
Learned the worst things from the best
And I'll blame it all on loneliness
Fairytales and foolishness
I'll blame it all on anything but me

When I lie I feel better
And there I go
I lied again
And I'd like to realize
Just where I start and my lies end
Oh, I'll blame it all on TV shows
Chick flicks and radio
I'll blame it all on anything but me

You could walk a mile in my shoes
You still wouldn't see

She tells me not to lie
Yeah, she tells me to tell her
What she wants to hear
Oh, I'd love to just tell her
The truth does much better
When placed upon deaf ears

If this town got any hotter
Wed be living on the sun
And it's hard to say I'm sorry
With my lips wrapped round your gun
Oh and I'll blame it all on loneliness
Fairytales and foolishness
I'll blame it all on anything but me

When I wake I feel better
And there I go I lied again
I can't eat and I can't sleep
Because she's banging my ex-friends

I want to tell her the truth
But she still doesn't hear
