Lie Lyrics

I don't feel much like talking to you tonight
I'd rather not let you twist my words around again
Until they give you something to feel
No, I would rather keep my distance, thank you very much
Thank you very much

What do you want? Do you want my apologies?
Do you want to hear me tell you I'm wrong? Because I won't
I won't feed your melodrama
And I won't be a part of your game
But thank you very much
Thank you very much

<b>Chorus</b>
Please fix your own lie before you start attacking mine

You can call me your friend if that's the security that you need
We all look for it in different ways
Just don't persecute me, thank you very much
Thank you very much

<i>(Chorus)</i>

Don't you see that I will be all that you want me to be
Don't you see that I will be all that you envisioned me to be
Don't you see that I will be all that you want me to be
Don't you see that I will be all that you want me to be

But I refuse to be raped
Until I confess all that you want to hear
Then consoled and told that it will be all right
Because it s not all right, I don't have the energy
And I don't have the strength
To take on your emotional weight

<i>(Chorus)</i>
