Lyrics
I can't face the lies I tell
I struggle to confront the falsehoods I speak
They help me sleep
Deceptive statements provide comfort for my sleep
it's just as well you never asked me what was true
It's good you never inquired about the reality
'Cause I could never lie to you
Because I cannot bring myself to lie to you
An open book with pages bare
I present myself as an open book with no secrets
That's the version I will share
This is the narrative I'm willing to disclose
Enough to feed a day or two
Enough information to last for a short while
But I could never lie to you
Yet, I remain incapable of deceiving you
Tell me something good
Requesting positive information
Tell me something real
Seeking genuine and authentic details
If you should ask me someday soon
If you inquire in the near future
I'll tell you something true
I promise to reveal something truthful
Are you hiding something too
Wondering if you have hidden truths as well
Are you the man I thought I knew
Questioning the authenticity of the person I knew
They say the truth can set you free
Expressing the liberating power of honesty
But would you ever lie to me
But questioning if you would ever deceive me
Tell me something good
Requesting positive information
Tell me something real
Seeking genuine and authentic details
Hear me when I ask you to
Urging you to respond truthfully
And tell me something true
And share something genuine with me
Honesty's a policy that we should explore
Advocating for honesty as a principle to explore
I confess I've never done something like this before
Admitting lack of experience in such transparency
But the thrill I get from you's a feeling I can't ignore
Expressing the excitement derived from you
And I'm ready now to take a step to open the door
Ready to take a step towards openness
If you tell me something good
Promising reciprocal truth if you do the same
I'll tell you something real
Mutual exchange of genuine information
Just don't leave me feeling blue
Asking not to be left in a melancholic state
Just tell me something true
Just share something truthful with me
Tell me something good
Requesting positive information
Tell me something real
Seeking genuine and authentic details
Hear me when I ask you to
Urging you to respond truthfully
And tell me something true
And share something genuine with me
Tell me something good
Requesting positive information
Tell me something real
Seeking genuine and authentic details
The last thing I will ask of you
The final request is for a truthful revelation
Is tell me something true
Asking for the last time to share something genuine
