White Lie Lyrics

I was 16 years old
When the sadness took hold
And it never went again

I still feel it sometimes
When the weather's unkind
That my lover's lips are thin

But then I'd get out, tell myself the white lie
That my faith would make everything alright
That I'd walk on water like when I was younger

I'm a failure, I'm a disaster
And I don't want to be anything else
I'm a loner, I'm a loser
And I don't want to be anything else

? around me
? It comes in waves again

Yeah, I do what I'm told
Let the future unfold
As I'm thrown down the rabbit hole

But then I'd get out, tell myself the white lie
That my faith would make everything alright
That I'd walk on water like when I was younger

I'm a failure, I'm a disaster
And I don't want to be anything else
I'm a loner, I'm a loser
And I don't want to be anything else

Do you feel the same thing?
Do you feel the same thing?


I don't want to be like you
I don't want to be like you
I don't want to be anything else
I don't want to be like you
I don't want to be like you
I don't want to be anything else

I'm a failure, I'm a disaster
And I don't want to be anything else
