Should have known it was April Fool's
When you said you loved me
Why do you lie? Why do you lie?
Should have known it
When I found the new clothes you got
You told me they were your friends
Oh why do you lie?

All my friends keep telling me give you up
I've tried to be strong
It's been going on so long
I still want to love you
But you've done me wrong

*Why do you lie with tears in your eyes?
When I kissed you there was no salt
But just freshwater that filled your eyes
Why do you lie with tears in your eyes
When I kissed the ground you walked on
I know your truth is just an alibi

Why do you lie?
Why do you lie?

When you told me simply that
The whole world falls around me?
Why do you lie? Why do you lie?
Should have known
When you sprayed on your perfume
That you're saving it for your lover
Why do you lie?

I just can't believe I can love
Still wanna try
I've tried to be strong
But it's been going on so long
I still want your love
But you play me for a fool

*Repeat

Speak to me of circumstance
That you just can't leave
You spit upon my confidence and ask me to believe
What am I here for?
Just to be around you
Until you've had enough?

*Repeat to fade
