I've lied / To you
The same way that I always do
This is / The last smile
That I'll fake for the sake of being with you

(Everything falls apart / Even the people who never frown / Eventually break down)
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie
(Everything has to end / You'll soon find we're out of time left / To watch it all unwind)
The sacrifice is never knowing

Chorus: repeat 2X
Why I never walked away
Why I played myself this way
Now I see your testing me pushes me away

I've tried / Like you
To do everything you wanted to
This is / The last time
I'll take the blame for the sake of being with

(Everything falls apart / Even the people who never frown / Eventually break down)
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie
(Everything has to end / You'll soon find we're out of time left / To watch it all unwind)
The sacrifice is never knowing

Chorus 2X

Were all out of time / this is how we learn how it all unwinds
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie
Were all out of time / this is how we learn how it all unwinds
The sacrifice is never knowing why...

Chorus 2X

pushes me away
