i've lied / to you
the same way that i always do
this is / the last smile
that i'll fake for the sake of being with you
[everything falls apart / even the people who never frown / eventually break down]
the sacrifice of hiding in a lie
[everything has to end / you'll soon find we're out of time left
to watch it all unwind]
the sacrifice is never knowing
why i never walked away
why i played myself this way
now i see your testing me pushes me away
i've tried / like you
to do everything you wanted to
this is / the last time
i'll take the blame for the sake of being with you
