Liar

I sit here in the sunbeams while you call me by the wrong name Denial sits heavy in my chest Scrapes like sandpaper in my head I wish that we could go back to the reading lamps and smooth jazz It would all be fixed with a finger snap But I know you can't take that back And the words don't work like I want them to I wish I could take every little memory of you And put it in a box and set that box on fire Better than being a liar Better than picturing you beside her Oh it's better ooh than being a liar I tried to be forgiving and believe in happy endings I didn't want to stir the pot I guess So I'll stick with silence instead On days when I have a clear mind It almost feels like old times When we held forever in our hands But then those thoughts come rushing back on in And the words don't work like I want them to I wish I could take every little memory of you And put it in a box and set that box on fire Better than being a liar Better than picturing you beside her Oh it's better ooh than being a liar Liar, liar, I'm on fire Liar, liar, I'm on fire And the words don't work like I want them to I wish I could take every little memory of you And put it in a box and set that box on fire Better than being a liar Better than picturing you beside her Oh it's better ooh than being a liar
