A Lie

Title: A Lie
Inspiration: Guys, must I reveal everything? I write from personal experience, you know...

Verse One:
Don't tell me I'm vulnerable
You don't have to say what everybody already knows
With every drop of water that falls
Whether it be from my eyelids off my nose
Or from the fountain
Babe, the shower's running cold
Like the river
Climb a mountain
I will see you there
I will meet you by the riverbank, bank...

Chorus:
Cash in my emotions, babe
Write me a check for my tears, honey
Sweet as honey dripping from the hive
Tell me I'm gonna be alright
Whisper me a lie
A lie

Verse Two:
It's just like a jack-in-the-box
The way you change up your mind
Yeah, I'm vulnerable
My tears flow like a fountain
Don't destroy your mountain
If our friendship's
Environmental
Degradation
I wanna see you there
I promise to meet you by the riverbank, bank...

Chorus:
Cash in my emotions, babe
Write me a check for my tears, honey
Sweet as honey dripping from the hive
Tell me I'm gonna be alright
Whisper me a lie
A lie

Bridge:
I'm alive
Living and breathing
Just a girl
Who doesn't know what she's feeling
In the labyrinth of doubt
How about you helping me find my way out?

Ending:
I will see you there
At the exit, baby
Labyrinth's ending
Let's climb that mountain
I will meet you by the riverbank, bank...

Cash in my emotions, babe
Write me a check for my tears, honey
Sweet as honey dripping from the hive
Tell me I'm gonna be alright and, oh
Cash in my emotions, babe
Write me a check for my tears, honey
Sugary-sweet as bleeding out your pain and love
Sweet as honey dripping from the hive
Don't tell me the truth; it's too scary to abide by
Tell me I'm gonna be alright
Whisper me a lie
In my ear
Whisper me a lie, my dear
As the sky darkens to night
Come a little closer and
Tell me all your lies...
