I am a liar when it comes to my feelings Not because it's in my nature to lie But because I fear that you would see straight through me When I say "I'm fine" I am actually wrecked inside When I say "I hate you" I actually mean I love you You see, I am a liar when it comes to my feelings Not because it's in my nature to lie But because I fear that the truth in my feelings will push you away When I say "Go away" I actually mean stay When I say "I'm happy for you" My tears actually start to build up I have said it twice but again, I am a liar when it comes to my feelings Not because it's in my nature to lie But because I want you to be happy When I say "You look good together" I actually mean I wish it was me When I say "I hope you'll last forever" I actually mean— But yes, I am a liar when it comes to my feelings Not because it's in my nature to lie But because I want to believe that these lies are the truth I want to believe that I'm fine I want to believe that I hate you I want to believe that I am happy for you I am not always a liar There is truth behind these eyes So when I look you straight in the eyes And tell you "I love you" I actually mean it

I Am A Liar
I am a liar when it comes to my feelings Not because it's in my nature to lie But because I fear that you would see straight through me When I say "I'm fine" I am actually wrecked inside When I say "I hate you" I actually mean I love you You see, I am a liar when it comes to my feelings Not because it's in my nature to lie But because I fear that the truth in my feelings will push you away When I say "Go away" I actually mean stay When I say "I'm happy for you" My tears actually start to build up I have said it twice but again, I am a liar when it comes to my feelings Not because it's in my nature to lie But because I want you to be happy When I say "You look good together" I actually mean I wish it was me When I say "I hope you'll last forever" I actually mean— But yes, I am a liar when it comes to my feelings Not because it's in my nature to lie But because I want to believe that these lies are the truth I want to believe that I'm fine I want to believe that I hate you I want to believe that I am happy for you I am not always a liar There is truth behind these eyes So when I look you straight in the eyes And tell you "I love you" I actually mean it
