# **LIE LIKE YOU LOVE ME** **Verse 1** You said you were sleeping But your phone stayed awake Said I was imagining Every move that you made You got a reason for everything A story ready to go And somehow when I catch you I’m the asshole for knowing You swear on forever Like forever means tonight You look me dead in the eyes And make wrong sound right **Pre-Chorus** You don't even flinch You don't miss a beat You could sell me the devil With an angel's receipt **Chorus** So lie like you love me Lie like you mean it Tell me I'm crazy Till I almost believe it Put your hand on my heart While you're hiding the knife Baby, nobody does it Nobody does it like— You lie, lie, lie So beautiful every time Lie like you love me One more night **Post-Chorus** Lie to me Lie to me You make goodbye sound like destiny Lie to me Lie to me You're so damn good at dishonesty **Verse 2** You say “nothing happened” That's your favorite line Funny how nothing happens Every fucking time You delete the evidence Then tell me there's none Turn a loaded gun around And ask me what I've done Every apology Has an exit built in Every promise you make Is a place you've already been **Pre-Chorus** You don't even shake You don't lose your cool You make me feel guilty For catching you **Chorus** So lie like you love me Lie like you mean it Tell me I'm crazy Till I almost believe it Put your hand on my heart While you're hiding the knife Baby, nobody does it Nobody does it like— You lie, lie, lie So beautiful every time Lie like you love me One more night **Bridge** Maybe the truth Was never your thing Maybe you only love What lying can bring Someone to hold you Someone to blame Someone who keeps coming back When you change the names And maybe I'm stupid Maybe that's true But I only look crazy 'Cause I believed you **Breakdown** Say you love me Say you need me Say I'm the only one Say you're sorry Say it's over Say whatever gets it done I know your mouth I know your game I know exactly what comes next You'll tell another perfect lie And I'll pretend I'm shocked again **Final Chorus** So lie like you love me Lie like you mean it Give me your best one I wanna hear you believe it Put your hand on my heart While you're twisting the knife Baby, nobody does it Nobody does it like— You lie, lie, lie And make it sound so right Lie like you love me One last time **Outro** Lie to me Lie to me Make me the villain in your memory Lie to me Lie to me The truth never looked That good on you anyway.
