Anything But The Truth

(album: Barstool Confessions - 2023)

Someone's bound to bring his name up
Ruin all my makeup, so, 'll go home and I'll just stay up
Writing texts I'll never send
I should just delete his number
So I don't blow my cover, I don't want no one to discover
I'm just playing pretend

Well, hearts don't break even
Guess it's either his or mine
So hey, it's if it's alright, if you see him, would you mind?

Tell him that I'm doing good
And I'm back on my boots again
Wind in my sails and sure as hell
The best I've ever been
Tell him that we caught up over beers
And I was smiling ear to ear
Tell him that I've been so busy he don't even cross my mind
Tell him I met someone new
And he don't ever make me cry
Yeah, if you see him, and he asks what I've been up to
Tell him anything
Tell him anything but the truth

But don't mention I ain't dating
Or that I'm one bad day from breaking
Wearing Ray Bans when it's raining
Hiding bags under my eyes

Well, hearts don't break even
Guess it's either his or mine
So, hey, if you see him, would you tell a little white lie?

Tell him that I'm doing good
And I'm back on my boots again
Wind in my sails and sure as hell
The best I've ever been
Tell him that we caught up over beers
And I was smiling ear to ear
Tell him that I've been so busy he don't even cross my mind
Tell him I met someone new
And he don't ever make me cry
If you see him and he asks what I've been up to
Tell him anything
Tell him anything

Say that the earth is flat
And that the sky ain't blue
That gravity it don't exist
And one plus one ain't two
But if you see him, please, whatever you do

Tell him that I'm doing good
And I'm back on my boots again
Wind in my sails and sure as hell
The best I've ever been
Tell him that we caught up over beers
And I was smiling ear to ear
Tell him that I've been so busy he don't even cross my mind
Tell him I met someone new
And he don't ever make me cry
And if you see him and he asks what I've been up to
Tell him anything
Yeah, tell him anything but the truth, oh
Oh

Oh, but you can tell him anything
Tell him anything
Oh, oh, oh, oh
But the truth
Anything, anything
