Living A Lie

You were wondering why

I just can't talk about anything

Is it because

I just can't talk to you

Would you prefer

To talk at length about anything

Just to keep you from starting to cry

You're wondering why

You get no satisfaction

Is it because

You just can't sleep at night

Or would you prefer

Some non-stop no-love action

Just to keep you from wondering why

I'm living a lie

I'm just living a lie

I'm living a lie

I'm just living a lie

And if I keep on living

The way I have been living

You will come to me and say all has been forgiven

But I didn't do anything wrong

I've just been living a lie too long, too long

You were wondering why

I keep up this illusion

Is it because

I hurt too much to hurt

Or would you prefer

We act like nothing's happening

Just to keep you from living a lie

I'm living a lie

I'm just living a lie

I'm living a lie

I'm just living a lie
