One Little Lie - Simple Creatures

I live on the dark side

So pull the shades tight

Don’t shine the light in my eyes

I’m so jealous and inspired

It’s like I’m always wired

To a time-bomb

I lost my faith in drinking

I lost my voice again

Living on a shark’s teeth

With you beside me

Waiting for the water to bleed

If I tell myself one little lie

Then I think that I’ll be alright

I tell myself one little lie

My head gets heavy every day

Like it’s filled with rocks and memories

'Cause I tell myself one little lie

And the pain don’t phase me

Falling of the earth’s face

Watching your eyes glaze

I taste the salt on your skin

Fighting in a foreign city

Tonight will only lead

Me to a time bomb

You lost yourself in whiskey

You lost your keys again

Living on a shark’s teeth

With you beside me

Waiting for the water to bleed

If I tell myself one little lie

Then I think that I’ll be alright

I tell myself one little lie

My head gets heavy every day

Like it’s filled with rocks and memories

I tell myself one little lie

And the pain don’t phase me

Everything, opposite

Back and forth, born to quit

Everything, opposite

Back and forth, born to quit

Everything (everything), opposite (opposite)

Back and forth (back and forth), born to quit (born to quit)

Everything (everything), opposite (opposite)

Everything (everything), opposite

If I tell myself one little lie

Then I think that I’ll be alright

I tell myself one little lie

I trip and stumble some of the time

But I know that I’ll be alright

I tell myself one little lie

And the pain don’t phase me

I tell myself one little lie

And the pain don’t phase me

I tell myself one little lie

And the pain don’t phase me

I tell myself one little lie

And the pain don’t phase me

I tell myself one little lie

And the pain don’t phase me
