Lyrics
If it's really, really bad news
I don't want to know
Cause i could never handle it
I'm not ready to go
Right now I just might have to stay here
In this frightened state
If I could only feel alright
Well then I'd feel great
Lie to me, lie to me
Now's not the time for honesty
Now's not the time for revelation
Lie to me.
I've never been so petrified
I just might suffocate
But waiting might be better than
Knowing what is my fate
My heart is beating in my throat
Don't know what's behind the door
My trembling hand won't turn the knob
I'm afraid of what's in store
Lie to me, lie to me
Perhaps there?s really nothing wrong
But if there is just play along
Lie to me
Lie like I have a choice
Pretend there's nothing wrong
Lie with you soothing voice
Smile and play along
So if it's really bad news
I don't want to know
Cause I don't know what I'd do
I'm not ready to go
Maybe I'm just paranoid
Don't want to overreact
Underneath I ask myself
Is it fiction or is it fact?
Lie to me, lie to me
Eventually I'll be ready
For the truth but now I'm unsteady
Lie to me
Lie to me, lie to me, lie to me, lie to me.
