Truth Is I Lied

Scratched a heart on your door Then I showed myself outside Lashed my soul 'cross this twin-v horse And rode off in the night Guess you noticed I'm gone And the low morning sun's Cast some shadows with questions inside So the truth's in this letter At dawn will shed a new light Truth is I lied when I said I'd always be your whippin' pet I lied when I said "I shouldn't mind the hurt I guess" When I pleaded and stated I needed you just to survive Truth is last night when you Tore my heart apart my mind began Never thinkin' 'bout thinkin' like your fool again And a freedom that filled me Kept spelling out truth as I'd write Truth is I lied Saw an image of you Where the highway touched the sky It was blockin' my view So I steered that thought aside Now the morning and me ride A cold memory past tomorrow to some other town Where we'll never care whether This truth was lost or found Truth is I lied when I said I'd always be your whippin' pet I lied when I said "I shouldn't mind the hurt I guess" When I pleaded and stated I needed you just to survive (I lied) Truth is last night when you Tore my heart apart my mind began Never thinkin' 'bout thinkin' like your fool again And a freedom that filled me Kept spelling out truth as I'd write Truth is I lied Truth is I lied
