I'M So Tired of the Lies

I'm so tired of the lies

I've heard... all of these stories before...
I say...it's time to show you the door...

You're so good at... telling your lies
but, I know how to read 'tween the lines
I'm saying...   God only knows
if anything you say's worth believing


Chorus
I'm so tired of the lies,
searching for truth...hiding in the lines
I'm going to lay down some rules,
not letting you choose...
what you're going to do...
The time has come for letting you go...
but... I think you already know...
that it's... 
time for goodbyes...
'cause that look in your eyes... is deceiving



I've learned... not to trust a word you say
I can't... believe how easily you've strayed

You say don't stay up waiting for me,
You say how young hearts need to be free
I know that...wherever you go
God only knows... what you're doing!


Chorus
I'm so tired of the lies,
searching for truth...hiding in the lines
I'm going to lay down some rules...
not letting you choose...
what you're going to do...
The time has come for letting you go...
but... I think you already know...
that it's... 
time for goodbyes...
'cause that look in your eyes ...is deceiving


Next time... don't even dream you can stay...
I don't... play all the games that you play,
It's better for me not to give in...
'cause if you stay you'll find ways to win


All that I know...is  that my heart,
cannot take... any more beatings!


Chorus
I'm so tired of the lies,
searching for truth...hiding in the lines
I'm going to lay down some rules,
not letting you choose...
what you're going to do...
The time has come for letting you go...
but, I think you already know...
that it's... 
time for goodbyes...
'cause that look in your eyes... is deceiving


Chorus
I'm so tired of the lies,
searching for truth...hiding in the lines
I'm going to lay down some rules,
not letting you choose...
what you're going to do...
The time has come for letting you go...
but, I think you already know...
that it's... 
time for goodbyes...
'cause that look in your eyes... is deceiving

repeat chorus and fade
