How Could You Ever (Lie)

(album: Changing States - 2018)

Should I forgive you?
Should we continue this helpless preview of never ending lies?
Are you satisfied?

Forget forgiving
Forget this feeling
Of hopeless rules that I cannot abide
How could you ever lie?

I knew you'd choose to hurt me
I know you never even tried

Fell for your tricks even when I saw them
Those endless games really were the problem
You knew your ways, you really can't deny
Told me you loved me and that you cared
And I believed you cause I was scared
Of losing you and all our precious time

Should I forgive you should I continue this helpless read through of never ending cries?
Should I even try?

Forget forgiving
Forget this feeling
Of needing you when all I did this time
Was sit and analyze

How bad you'd really treat me
And how I didn't realize

Your selfishness kept me in my place away from you and in my own space
Oh how I knew this shouldn't ever fly
I can't believe you'd sit and see me
Feel like a flea that's trapped from leaving
This helpless mind you put me in this time

How could you ever?
How could you ever lie?
How could you ever lie?
You lied
How could you ever lie?

I'm glad
That I will never be yours
You made me sore
I'm glad that I am finally free
From this aching war
You hate me
Love me
Please just make up your mind
Don't understand why you can't decide
You hate me
Love me
Stop fucking with my mind
I don't have much time

Your selfishness kept me in my place away from you and in my own space
Oh how I knew this shouldn't ever fly
I can't believe you'd sit and see me
Feel like a flea that's trapped from leaving
This helpless mind you put me in this time

How could you ever?
How could you ever lie?
How could you ever lie?
You lied
How could you ever lie?
