Tell Me Lies

Tell me lies.

I'll believe them.

I need them.

Teach me heartache.

I already know so much.

But there is always more to learn.

Give me your stolen kisses.

They burn my lips.

And their taste is sour.

Take back your love drug.

It's making me addicted.

And I can't escape you.

Give me back my life.

You hold my heart in your hands.

And it is fragile.

Take back your disease.

It's killing me.

And you don't care.

Tell me lies.

To make me stay.

You know I will.
