Telling Lies Lyrics

(humming)

Hiding, caught you lying

Always darkness in the deep

Tryna talk, you always wander off

You never wanna speak

If I ever have a question

Keep it hush, now not a peep

Seen me losing, had me bruising

16 years of secret keeps

Hidden in the open

Snow globe showing what I seen

Tried to tell me he's not family

What you said was make believe

Yet I always had suspicion

But I trusted what you preached

Then I gotten home from school

My father said we need to speak

Why do?

Do you always have to hide?

When I need you

Found you smiling, telling lies

What did I do?

Hid my brother most my life

Got me thinking of those times

What controls your weary mind

In your mindset

You don't care about my side

Its one sided

Hate to be one who tries

Tries to fix that

All those days you're tryna frame

What controls you in your brain

So you lie to set the blame

My father said the truth

Now from that day I felt betrayed

Had me crying in my hands

Those puzzled thoughts are making sense

Why'd you lie?

I'm thinking back the only word I said was "why?"

Why'd you lie?

You're my parent

Guide me once and steer me right

Forget it

I don't need the one who wants to point the blame

Forget it

I don't need someone who wants to lie again

Forget it

Now my trust is fucked, I think upon those days

In the grave

Have me losing what I thought was never fake

Why do?

Do you always have to hide?

When I need you

Found you smiling, telling lies

What did I do?

Hid my brother most my life

Got me thinking of those times

What controls your weary mind

In your mindset

You don't care about my side

Its one sided

Hate to be one who tries

Tries to fix that

All those days you're tryna frame

What controls you in your brain

So you lie to set the blame

Why do?

Do you always have to hide?

When I need you

Found you smiling, telling lies

What did I do?

Hid my brother most my life

Got me thinking of those times

What controls your weary mind

In your mindset

You don't care about my side

Its one sided

Hate to be one who tries

Tries to fix that

All those days you're tryna frame

What controls you in your brain

So you lie to set the blame
