Lies (They Never Leave Their Wives)

(album: They Never Leave Their Wives - 2020)

And so this is how it must be
It's slowly washing over me
We never really had a chance
And you never should've held my hand
There's so much that I wanna say
But my words don't matter anyway
'Cause you're already miles away

So I'll be on the other side
With a broken heart and wounded pride
Now there's nothing left for you to hide
Go back to your other life
Kiss your kids and hug your wife
And pretend you're not living a lie

I'm fun and full of life, you say
I wake up sleeping men that way
They fall in such an awkward way
Outside of what's allowed
And the road that leads up to my bed
Is paved with broken promises
Hardest ever lesson learned:
They never leave their wives

So I'll be on the other side
With a broken heart and wounded pride
Now there's nothing left for you to hide
Go back to your other life
Kiss your kids and hug your wife
And pretend you're not living a lie

Yeah, I'll be on the other side
With a broken heart and wounded pride
Now there's nothing left for you to hide
Go back to your other life
Kiss your kids and hug your wife
And pretend you're not living a lie

Lie, lie
Lie, lie
Lie, lie...
Lie, lie
Lie, lie
Lie, lie...

So I'll be on the other side
With a broken heart and wounded pride
Now there's nothing left for you to hide
