Lyrics
Why lie, why lie
He asked me
(Why lie, why lie, he asked me)
I don't try, I don't try
Just trust me
(I don't try, I don't try, just trust me)
He laughs and cries at the irony
But I can tell by the look in his eyes
He could never leave
And is it the way, the look, you give me right now
That keeps me away
Or is it the way you try to criminalize me
In every way
Or maybe it's when, you won't look me in my eyes
That drives me insane
But you knew who I was from the start
This is the price you pay
(Oooh, wup, wup, wup, wup)
(Oooh, wup, wup, wup, wup)
(Oooh, wup, wup, wup, wup)
(Oooh, wup, wup, wup, wup)
When I promised you my love when this all began
I didn't think that you would hold me to it
I'm not used to the demand
I'm trying my best, I'm failing the test
But not cuz I cheat
And I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear
You'll always get the best of me
And is it the way, the look you give me right now
That keeps me away
Or is it the way you try to criminalize me
In every way
Or maybe it's when, you won't look me in my eyes
That drives me insane
But you knew who I was from the start
This is the price you pay
(Oooh, wup, wup, wup, wup)
(Oooh, wup, wup, wup, wup)
(Oooh, wup, wup, wup, wup)
(Oooh, wup, wup, wup, wup)
Why lie, why lie, she asked me
(Why lie, why lie, he asked me)
I don't try, I don't try, just trust me
(I don't try, I don't try, why don't you trust me)
She laughs and cries at the irony
(He laughs and cries)
But I can tell by the look in her (his) eyes
She (he) could never leave
And is it the way, the look you give me right now
That keeps me away
Or is it the way you try to criminalize me
In every way
Or maybe it's when, you won't look me in my eyes
That drives me insane
But you knew who I was from the start
Yes you knew who I was from the start
Yes you knew who I was from the start
(Whoo)
(Oooh, wup, wup, wup, wup)
(Oooh, wup, wup, wup, wup)
(Oooh, wup, wup, wup, wup)
(Oooh, wup, wup, wup, wup)
