Ruthie Foster - Lie Your Way to the Truth

First you weren't paying attention
Building up your double life
But the bottom fell out of your conscience
And your smile doesn't reach your eyes
The smile doesn't reach your eyes

Can you lie your way to the truth
Can you swallow the way it tastes
Try to lie your way to the truth
Try to stomach the things you say
Hey hey look at you
Crying wolf, till the wolf's at your door
Hey look at you
Lying till you can't the truth
From the lies anymore

First I wasn't paying attention
When you showed me who you are
Underneath the shiny illusion
Was a rot underneath the floor
Right down to the core

You can lie your way to the truth
Can you swallow the way it tastes
Try and lie your way to the truth
Never pay for the things you say

Hey look at you
Crying wolf, till the wolf's at your door
Look at you
Lie until you can't the truth from the lies anymore

You've been running but your luck ran out
Deceiving wherever you go
You lie awake in your empty house
Now you know, now you know
