White Lies (For Your Own Good) Lyrics

Pinned up against the corner of the room

I stare ahead blankly, but my soul follows too

Walls around me closing in like a tomb

A smell of fear as I'm covered by the gloom

I look at you, so innocent and pure

As I hide away the truth you have to endure

I think I'm going mad, I can't hide it for long

And I know for all this time that I am in the wrong

I don't wanna have to lie to you

But there's nothing I can do

It's for your own good

I don't wanna have to lie to you

But there's nothing I can do

It's for your own good

Scared to be told, and scared to tell

A feeling so bad I wish I was in hell

A web of lies where everything fell

So pick it up and hit the bell

A liars march will go the lengths unseen

Where truths be told is not a place to be

i know it hurts, I'll hide it all from you

But I know one day there's nothing I can do

I don't wanna have to lie to you

But there's nothing I can do

It's for your own good

I don't wanna have to lie to you

But there's nothing I can do

It's for your own good

I don't wanna have to lie to you

But there's nothing I can do

It's for your own good

I don't wanna have to lie to you

But there's nothing I can do

It's for your own good
