Lie to me

Did I tell you how I like it
When you tell me that everything's gonna be okay?
Did I tell you how I love that
For a moment I believe I can send the bad thoughts away?

And in that moment you tell me
That you would split the sky in half
For a moment of glory
And for a simple glimpse of my love

The truth is nothing more than a harsh version
Of something created in someone else's imagination

Lie to me
And tell me the world is not on fire
Lie to me
Tell me that I am sane
Lie to me
For you have me wired
Lie to me
For the prospect of a better day

You should lie to me to make things better
Than how things turn out to be
Because your lies makes me push further
Than the person everyone thinks is me

The old truth is something that can be left denied
If the lie becomes a truth that's amplified.
