My head is tangled up in knots another heart you left to rot You left your letter by the phone that read you're never coming home Those things you won't concede they keep me on my knees And now I start to buckle at the seams Could you tell me a lie, lie 'Cause I don't want to hear those words tonight, tonight 'Cause I can't take the truth, baby give it a try I've seen it a thousand times I know those lips can lie Could you tell me a lie, lie 'Cause I can't take I can't take the truth from you, from you I watched our castle turn to dust Just one more girl that I can't trust Those things you won't confess, no need to second guess You broke my back and now there's nothing left Could you tell me a lie, lie 'Cause I don't want to hear Those words tonight, tonight 'Cause I can't take the truth Baby, give it a try, I've seen it a thousand times I know those lips can lie Could you tell me a lie, lie 'Cause I can't take, I can't take the truth Could you tell me a lie, lie 'Cause I can't take it, I can't Could you tell me a lie, lie 'Cause I can't take the truth Baby, give it a try, I've seen it a thousand times I know those lips can lie Could you tell me a lie, lie 'Cause I can't take, I can't take the truth from you
