I probably should have
told her the sky was falling
Or maybe that my car ran
out of gas
My grandma was sick and I
had to leave town right away
Not ok
Tell one more to
fix the last one
But I never get back
to the truth
Thinking to myself
she'll never find out
That's what we do
That's how we do
I wonder what she
really thinks of me
Shouldn't really
told her everything
But it's too late
Can't take it back
She'll never look at me
the same way again
noooooo
Cuz the truth may not
set me free
Is more than just a word
My honesty just
became my enemy
Maybe a lie would have made
things right this time
Shoulda lied
Shoulda lied
Shoulda said it was the
end of the world
But sadly it's my reality
Would she stay if I said
I only had one day left
Stay with me
Please don't leave
I wonder what she really
thinks of me
I wish I would have never
said a thing
But it's too late for that
I don't think
she's coming back
And I'll never look at truth
the same again
Cuz the truth may not
set me free
Is more than just a word
My honesty just
became my enemy
Maybe a lie would have made
things right this time
Shoulda lied
Shoulda lied
Now I'm trying hard to
convince my heart
That everything would be ok
She said she'll never leave
and I just can't believe
she's gone
And now I know
Cuz the truth may not
set me free
Is more than just a word
My honesty just
became my enemy
Maybe a lie would have made
things right this time
I Shoulda lied
And now goodbye
Promise myself next time
I won't tell the truth
Cuz If I knew what
I knew right now I'll
still be with you
I shoulda lied
Shoulda lied
Shoulda lied
Should lied
