Miguel So I Lie
[Verse 1]
Peel me apart, all my layers
All of my fears, all my pride
They say, "Laugh now, and cry later"
I can't ignore how I feel inside
[Chorus]
Laugh and the world will laugh, too
Cry and the world laughs at you, girl
So I lie to myself
Let's be real, I'm afraid of how I feel
So I lie to my friends
But they can tell
Just a shell of who I am when I lie
Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie
[Verse 2]
I can barely breathe treading water
Smile on my face while I'm turning blue
Nobody cares, just work harder
I do what I can to avoid the truth
[Chorus]
Laugh and the world will laugh, too
Cry and the world laughs at you, girl
So I lie to myself
Let's be real, I'm afraid of how I feel
So I lie to the world
They can see, they can see right through me when I lie
Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie
[Bridge]
Avoided faults and doubts mutate to poison
Then loaded thoughts explode at ones I love
I wanna face myself, but I keep running
To shifty patterns
I become when I lie
[Chorus]
So I lie to myself
Let's be real, just afraid of how I feel
So I lie to my friends
But you can tell
Just a shell of who I am when I lie
To the world
They can see, they can see right through me when I lie
Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie
[Interlude]
I'm not complaining, I'm just chilling from not dealing with myself
That's the villain in my soul
Plus I hate to ask for help
I'm not complaining, I'm just chilling from not dealing with myself
That's the villain in my soul
Plus I hate to ask for help
[Outro]
Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie
