Good Lie

Drunk and alone in the hotel bed Covered in the orange of the light out there I'm waiting You're out wasted There's someone that I'd like to call He's probably sitting in the room next door same as I Cause I gave you another shot And I don't know why He never tried Cause I'd be gone I should've known you don't change Cause you're caught in your ways I won't Get you outta that place in your mind where you go How could I believe you that you care when it doesn't show? Oh And I don't wanna hate you But this doesn't paint you as much of a good guy I hope you're having a good time And I could've replaced you So don't test my patience I already thought twice You better tell me a good lie Staring at the ceiling on the hotel floor It's so fucking tempting to just knock next door You're fading I'm impatient Mmh, you probably met someone downtown It's just your way of dealing with your wrongs I won't lie. That's something I should've taken on If only you had Told me about All the times But I didn't know then and I don't know if I want to now Cause it's tainting every memory with you that I have And if I'm walking out that door, well then I'm just as bad Yeah yeah And I don't wanna hate you But this doesn't paint you as much of a good guy I hope that you had a good time And I could've replaced you Though I'm sitting patient But baby, yeah I might Better come back with a good lie Cause I might And I know it won't paint me in a good light At least we'd be on the same side This time So you best be patient and learn how to think twice I know that you love a good lie Drunk and alone playing with my keys Trying to decide who I want to be You don't care You just left me Thinking 'bout the things you said I know you mean 'em cause there's truth in them Still, I'm sure you'll be sorry when you come back But I don't know if I'll be there to listen then And I don't wanna hate you But this doesn't paint you as much of a good guy I hope that you had a good time And I should just replace you Though I'm sitting patient But baby, yeah I might Better come back with a good lie Cause I might (yeah I might) And I know it won't paint me in a good light At least we'd be on the same side This time So you best be patient and learn how to think twice I know that you love a good lie Yeah
