[Verse 1] I would love to be better I would love to be free I would love to be perfect When you look at me But instead Im still crying Yes instead Im still lying Sad to say Im still trying Not to be me When I see all the weakness That I turned into sickness I still think I can slide Just fine on the ice Its not easy, to be honest Sometimes Im just astonished How hard it can be to be true [Chorus] Why do I lie? Is it just to get by? If I give up my lines Will I die? If fortunes are favored Then I am in labor And Im trying so hard To leave lying behind [Verse 2] I dont want to be hazy I dont think that Im crazy But Ive had some moments Where I am not sure And if you can forgive me For just being human Then I will try harder To keep my words pure I could be on the border It could be a disorder Honestly I think That I can come clean And all of my stories Might even be boring If I can tell you What they all mean [Chorus] Why do I lie? Is it just to get by? If I give up my lines Will I die? If fortunes are favored Then I am in labor And Im trying so hard To leave lying behind
