I was never tall
Never knew much at all about
Making more than nickels and dimes
The place that I'm from
Folks assume that we're dumb
Thinking they might just be right
Well, I fell for you
And you said you did too
Lately I'm not quite convinced
Was your head in the clouds
I had it turned up so loud
Couldn't see I'm more pauper than prince
I won you over that night
I been chasing your tail ever since
So
Lie to me
I've got courage
I'll believe
Lie to me
I've got courage
I'll believe
We started like a fire
But I could tell that you're tired
Seeing smoke and breathing in fumes
You must be on to me
How could this smokescreen
Be something that you can't see through
I've got this thing with burning buildings
I've always been willing
It's scary but I can pretend
I never get rattled like a soldier in battle
I follow a lie to the end
I follow little white lies
To my fiery end
So
Lie to me
I've got courage
I'll believe
That you still
Wanna be
With me
Lie to me
Well can you remember
Burned a hole through September
It kept us warm through the winter
The fire was all we could see
Yeah
Can you remember
Burned a hole through September
It kept us warm through the long December
Stoked the fire
Let's make believe
Lie to me
I've got courage
I'll believe
That you still
Wanna be
With me
Lie to me
It's just fire to me
I've got courage
I'll believe
That you still
Wanna be
With me
Lie to me
