UMK 2021:
Oskr - "Lie"

Lie

It's been six months and seven days and....well, twenty-three hours
Not that I'm counting every moment
I feel like I'm drowning
But it makes sense, that our old friends thought we'd both come
They thought I was over
But now that I'm close to you it's clear that
I'm not really over

You ask me how I'm feeling
But you can see past that lie of the old fake smile that I hide behind
And I know that I can't say I'm sorry
For all the wasted love and the broken trust that we left behind

So we talk about the weather
We talk about our friends
We talk about anything but what we're thinking
So you ask me how I'm feeling
and I'll lie

Try to find out in subtle ways, if you're still alone now
But he's texting your phone now
There's that smile that I used to bring out
I don't mention the empty bed, that I lie awake in
That I sleep with mistakes in
To hide my heartache
To cover the pain with

You ask me how I'm feeling
But you can see past that lie of the old fake smile that I hide behind
And I know that I can't say I'm sorry
For all the wasted love and the broken trust that we left behind

And I try to pretend that I'm happy
But my heart still breaks and I see your face if I close my eyes
Oh so please don't ask me how I'm feeling
Cause you won't believe that lie of the old fake smile that it hides behind

So we talk about the weather
We talk about our friends
We talk about anything but what we're thinking So you aѕk me how I'm feeling
аnd I'll lie
