Bad Liar

Oh, hush, my dear, it's been a difficult year

And terrors don’t prey on innocent victims

Trust me, darlin', trust me darlin'

It’s been a loveless year

I'm a man of three fears:

Integrity, faith, and crocodile tears

Trust me, darlin', trust me, darlin'



So look me in the eyes, tell me what you see

Perfect paradise, tearin' at the seams

I wish I could escape it, I don't wanna fake it

Wish I could erase it, make your heart believe



But I'm a bad liar, bad liar

Now you know, now you know

I'm a bad liar, bad liar

Now you know, you’re free to go



Did all my dreams never mean one thing?

Does happiness lie in a diamond ring?

Oh, I’ve been askin' for—

Oh, I’ve been askin' for problems, problems, problems

I wage my war, on the world inside

I take my gun to the enemy's side

Oh, I've been askin’ for— (Trust me, darlin')

Oh, I've been askin' for (Trust me, darlin') problems, problems, problems



So look me in the eyes, tell me what you see

Perfect paradise, tearin' at the seams

I wish I could escape it, I don't wanna fake it

Wish I could erase it, make your heart believe



But I'm a bad liar, bad liar

Now you know, now you know

I'm a bad liar, bad liar

Now you know, you're free to go



I can't breathe, I can't be

I can't be what you want me to be

Believe me, this one time

Believe me



I'm a bad liar, bad liar

Now you know, now you know

I'm a bad liar, bad liar

Now you know, you're free to go



Oh-oh-oh

Please believe me

Please believe me
