Lie to Me
Koko LaRoo Lyrics

I can see a storm and it's coming my way.
I can sense a problem approaching in our relationship.

I think I'm gonna drown if you say what you say
I fear that the truth you're about to tell me will devastate me emotionally.

Just tell me I'm the only one
Please assure me that I'm the one you love the most.

That you think about when I'm not around, yeah
I want to feel like you're thinking of me even when we're apart.

And I don't wanna know what I already know.
I already suspect the truth, so please don't confirm it for me.

Just keep it to yourself leave me out in the cold.
I'd rather be in the dark than be hurt by the truth.

Never let the words come out.
Please don't tell me the truth, even if it hurts me less in the long run.

Keep 'em locked inside and just let 'em die.
If you bury the truth, it will eventually fade away.

Say there's only me
Just tell me that I'm the only one you love.

So it won't be over
I'm hoping your lie will help keep our relationship from falling apart.

I can make believe
I'll pretend that I don't know the truth and continue to live in ignorant bliss.

I want you to lie to me
I'd much rather hear a comforting lie than a painful truth.

I'm better off not having to look or to hear
I'm afraid that if I see or hear the truth, it will be too much to bear.

I know it's gonna cut me and bring me to tears
I'm aware that the truth will hurt me and make me cry.

Can you try and think about all the better days?
Maybe if you focus on our good memories, you won't have to tell me the truth.

Can you find that place, yeah
Can you find a way to avoid telling me the truth?

And do you understand why you want it to end?
Do you understand why the truth might cause the end of our relationship?

Can you ask yourself again and again?
Please think long and hard before deciding to tell me the truth.

If you say something
If you tell me the truth,

I can make believe (If you lie)
I'll try to fool myself into believing a lie instead.

I want you to
I'm begging you to

I want you to lie
Please lie to me to spare my feelings.

I want you to lie to me
Once again, I need you to hide the truth from me.
