You can lie to me in the morning
You can lie to me in the afternoon
You can lie to me whenever you'd really like

But. Do. Not.
For the sake of yourself
Lie to me at night

I know who you are at night
You cannot hide behind your face at night
Everything bad about you shines through at night
It's easy to see if you're telling the truth at night

I can tear you apart at night
I can hear your knees buckle at night
I can taste the worry at night

Do not lie to me at night
