I became good at lying
(You did your best to believe in me)
Or maybe when I was trying
(You kept acting like you didn't see)

I'd love to break down and cry
But I've never really learnt how to
And I managed to take you on a ride
And now we're through

I became good at lying
(You did your best to believe in me)
Or maybe when I was trying
(You kept acting like you didn't see)
I became good at lying
(You were pretty good)
Or maybe when I was trying
(Did you try hard enough?)

Now I've done it so many times
It's not like something new
Oh I wish I kept the truth inside
It's a pain to get used to

Let me take you down
To the memory hole
It's the start, the middle and the end
It's everything I own
Use your imagination

I became good at lying
(You did your best to believe in me)
Or maybe when I was trying
(You kept acting like you didn't see)
I became good at lying
(You were pretty good)
Or maybe when I was trying
(Did you try hard enough?)
