You're dangling lies before my eyes,

Betraying all my trust.

I can't disguise that doubts arise

To things which we've discussed.

 

You fear I'll know what you won't show,

Manipulate your mind.

Are you so slow to think I'd go

And stab you from behind?

 

Chorus:

Don't lie to me or say goodbye to me,

Cause if you do, I'll say goodbye to you.

Don't lie to me. Why not try to be

One who is true, like you used to do.

 

A truth revealed that's been concealed

Could make a man irrate,

So you just try another lie

And hope I'll take the bait.

 

But in the end you'll lose a friend,

For reasons we've discussed;

Cause I intend to just extend

My love to friends I trust.

 

Chorus--repeat fading out.
