Happy With Lies Lyrics

For how long can you pretend to be blind

Do you know me at all

Are you happy with lies

Need to talk, scared to death

Am I supposed to feel like this

Looking at my mother's face

Am I supposed to feel like I'm not enough

For being in love, for being in love

Am I supposed to feel like

You'd rather be happy with lies

Why we have to hide

Our hearts from people

Those who we are

So afraid to hurt

Thinking that the truth

Would only make it somehow worse

So we have to lie

To those we love the most

Why we have to hide

Our hearts from people

Those who we are

So afraid to hurt

Thinking that the truth

Would only make it somehow worse

So we have to lie

To those we love the most

Thinking that the truth would only

Make it even worse

For how long can we pretend everything's fine

Do you know me at all

Are you happy with lies

You prefer not me

But your idea of a perfect family

And for some reason, I keep playing along

Smiling while swallowing thorns

Why we have to hide

Our hearts from people

Those who we are

So afraid to hurt

Thinking that the truth

Would only make it somehow worse

So we have to lie

To those we love the most

Why we have to hide

Our hearts from people

Those who we are

So afraid to hurt

Thinking that the truth

Would only make it somehow worse

So we have to lie

To those we love the most

Thinking that the truth would only

Make it even worse
