White Lie

I will ever try to find it in your face-oh a love that would hold me And the promises that you and I have made-a white lie on my shoulder You know I have failed for oh so long Why do I even try to defend myself? And I tell you that it's too hard to explain-just try to control it But the fire that I told you I would give is just a pile that smoulders How can I pretend for oh so long That I have some good in me without you? How can I have hid for oh so long When it feels so good to surrender? --- White Lie - Zach Winters
