Livin’ a Lie
[Verse 1]
There’s a girl that I once knew, hidden in the dark
Away from all the dangers, separated by the heart
She never once complained, was a happy little soul
Who bottled all her dreams 'til she was ready to explode
[Pre-Chorus]
One day she flew through the open window
They said, "You’ll come back,"
She said, "Sorry, I don’t think so, because,"
[Chorus]
Sometimes we please in a sacrificial way
Sometimes we heal a little every day
Sometimes we need just to get away
Sometimes we feel like we’re livin' a lie
Like we’re livin' a lie
Like we’re livin' a lie
[Verse 2]
Then she was alone for the first time in her life
She’d given up everything she knew, hey
The innocence of freedom was drowning in a pool
Of reality so cold, there was no one there to hold, and it’s true
[Chorus]
Sometimes we please in a sacrificial way
Sometimes we heal a little every day
Sometimes we need just to get away
Sometimes we feel like we’re livin' a lie
Like we’re livin' a lie
[Bridge]
Sometimes we feel (She cries herself to sleep)
Sometimes we feel (The secrets that we keep)
Sometimes we feel (That god has turned his head)
We don’t know why, but
[Chorus]
Sometimes we please in a sacrificial way
Sometimes we heal a little every day
Sometimes we need just to get away
Sometimes we feel like we’re livin' a lie
Like we’re livin' a lie
Like we’re livin' a lie
Like we’re livin' a lie
Like we’re livin' a lie
