A compulsive liar cannot avoid her fate forever.
I've been meaning to get something off my chest...
perhaps i should keep it to myself

you told a lie yet again
dug a hole and buried it beneath bullshit
but I'll just nod my head until you slip
into a hole that you can't fill
your problems are too big to wrap my head around

I've gotta get something off my chest
it's not worth much but...

one day you'll tell a lie so big
that you'll spread yourself too thin just to cover it
so I'll just bite my tongue until you trip
into a problem far too big to wrap your legs around

I've gotta get something off my chest
it's more than you're worth but here is my two cents
I don't give a fuck if you want it, fake it
nod your head, bite your tongue and just fucking take it

you made this bed and now I'm tucking you
say your goodbyes, you'll never see us again
you pled innocence to anybody who would listen
but the truth is that nobody believed you but yourself

six feet deep and waiting for help
I wouldn't hold my breath
but you might as well...
