Go back, my spine   And hold this up to a brighter light      Consequences batting high up through the atmosphere   And I don't have the will to make the situation clear enough   Til you can find a better place to sleep   And I can't fight the secret that I keep fro you      This is my lie   Think I'll hold it back   From the tip of my tongue tonight   This is my lie   Think I'll hold it back   From the tip of my tongue tonight      You turn your lie   Away from this feeling in disguise   I'm running out the door   And my heart begins to trip.   I wonder if your tongue will taste   The floor left on my lips      'Cause I can't fight   These walls have to hide   You just stand outside   Waiting there for me      This is my lie   Think I'll hold it back   From the tip of my tongue tonight   This is my lie (this is my lie)   Think I'll hold it back   From the tip of my tongue tonight      Consquences batting high up through the atmosphere   And I don't have the will to make the situation clear enough   Til you can find a better place to sleep   And I can't fight the secret that I keep from you      This is my lie   Think I'll hold it back   From the tip of my tongue tonight   This is my lie (this is my lie)   Think I'll hold it back   From the tip of my tongue tonight
