Dressing my voice up on the phone
underneath the envy rotting my bones.
I’d do anything to get you alone,
if just for awhile.
Blame it on the way that I talk,
you can blame it on the way that I look,
you can blame it on the stuff that I drank,
and the pills that I took.
Tell me a lie,
if it’s true.
Have you done all the things
I never wanted you to?
Baby, is she all that you dreamed?
I think about you every night that I go to sleep.
You’re laying there wrapped up in her arms
how we used to be.
Are you seriously falling in love,
or do you do it just to get back at me?
I deserve to take it, I guess,
I just wish we could be.
Tell me a lie,
if it’s true.
Have I done all the things
I never wanted to do?
I know you hate it when I play you my songs
because there's not one of them when you weren’t involved.
I bet you wish I’d take the issue at hand
and just get it solved.
Tripping myself up on my words
Writing checks that I couldn’t cash
I rip ‘em up and throw ‘em away
Then dig ‘em out of the trash
You won’t believe me if I promise again,
but I’m telling you that I can change.
I’d scream it at the top of my lungs,
but it’s out of my range
Tell me a lie if it’s true.
Have you done all the things
I never wanted you to?
Tell me a lie if it’s true.
Have I done all the things
I never wanted to do?
Have I lost the only chance I had with you?
