LYRICS

I drift away to a place
Another kind of life
Take away the pain I create my paradise
Everything I’ve held has hit the wall
What used to be yours isn’t yours at all

Falling apart and all that I’m asking
Is it a crime am I overreacting?
Oh, he’s under my skin
Just give me something to get rid of him
I’ve got a reason now to bury this alive
Another little white lie

So what you had didn’t fit
Among the pretty things
Never fear, never fear
I now know where you’ve been
Braids have been un-tied
As ribbons fall away
Leave the consequence
My tears you’ll taste

Falling apart and all that I question
Is this a dream or is this my lesson
Oh, he’s under my skin
Just give me something to get rid of him
I’ve got a reason now to bury this alive
Another little white lie

I don’t believe I’ll be alright
I don’t believe I’ll be okay
I don’t believe how you’ve thrown me away
I do believe you didn’t try
I do blame you for every lie
When I look in your eyes
I don’t see mine

Oh, he’s under my skin
Just give me something to get rid of him
I’ve got a reason now to bury this alive
Another little white lie
Oh my permission to sin
You might have started my reckoning
I’ve got a reason now to bury him alive
Another little white lie
