Lie About You OSTON

[Verse 1]
Could you please just put the coffee down?
It's two in the mornin' and I'm already ready for bed
Went to turn the TV down
Hand me the remote, but both of the batteries were dead
Couldn't make decisions
Thought I needed your permission
So I don't drink black coffee now
Don't know how it didn't taste so bitter back then

[Pre-Chorus]
And if your friends all see it, your boyfriend sees it
Even your mama sees it, maybe you should believe it
And I ain't got no reason to be mistreated at all

[Chorus]
So why do I, why do I, why do I lie
Lie about you?
Why do I, why do I, why do I try
Pretendin' I'm cool when I'm not?
'Cause everyone told me what I couldn't see
I tried to deny you were hurtin' me
I know I shouldn't, so why do I lie
Lie about you?

[Verse 2]
Should've seen that all the flags were red
But in your defense, I went and painted 'em white
For a minute, never second guessed
When you put me down so you could pull up your pride
Guess I learned that I'm worth somethin'
Bet you never saw that comin'
And I hope someday you'll understand
Your problems with me were always your own design
