You were such a fan of me
Now I've made our history
Look like a burnt-out fag
Yes, I stabbed you in the back
And I always did believe
That you and me would always be
But now I've ruined all'
Cause I can't tell lies, no,
I can't tell lies to
No, I can't tell lies to you
My body's taking over me
What's now gonna set me free?
My eyes are dim,
I can barely see
My legs are limp and my knees are weak
And that pair of loving arms
That can contain me all around
You just don't possess
I can't tell lies, no,
I can't tell lies
No, I can't tell lies to you'
Cause I can't tell lies, no,
I can't tell lies
No, I can't tell lies to you
Now I'm lying under the snow
Someone puts a glove in my mouth
I'm choking, close to throwing up
What's now gonna pick me up?
Listen, gutter-guy complaining
When it's you who's really drowning
My only true love that
I ever did have
I sent you down to hell'
Cause I can't tell lies, no,
I can't tell lies
So I can't tell lies to you
But I can't tell lies, no,
I can't tell lies
And I can't tell lies to you
Ooh, can't tell lies, ooh, can't tell lies
Ooh, can't tell lies to you
Ooh, can't tell lies, ooh, can't tell lies
Ooh, can't tell lies to you, oh, eh
