Lyrics One Little Lie - Simple Creatures

One Little Lie

I live on the dark side
So pull the shades tight
Don’t shine the light in my eyes
I’m so jealous and inspired
It’s like I’m always wired
To a time-bomb
I lost my faith in drinking
I lost my voice again
Living on a shark’s teeth
With you beside me
Waiting for the water to bleed
If I tell myself one little lie
Then I think that I’ll be alright
I tell myself one little lie
My head gets heavy every day
Like it’s filled with rocks and memories
'Cause I tell myself one little lie
And the pain don’t phase me
Falling of the earth’s face
Watching your eyes glaze
I taste the salt on your skin
Fighting in a foreign city
Tonight will only lead
Me to a time bomb
You lost yourself in whiskey
You lost your keys again
Living on a shark’s teeth
With you beside me
Waiting for the water to bleed
If I tell myself one little lie
Then I think that I’ll be alright
I tell myself one little lie
My head gets heavy every day
Like it’s filled with rocks and memories
I tell myself one little lie
And the pain don’t phase me
Everything, opposite
Back and forth, born to quit
Everything, opposite
Back and forth, born to quit
Everything (everything), opposite (opposite)
Back and forth (back and forth), born to quit (born to quit)
Everything (everything), opposite (opposite)
Everything (everything), opposite
If I tell myself one little lie
Then I think that I’ll be alright
I tell myself one little lie
I trip and stumble some of the time
But I know that I’ll be alright
I tell myself one little lie
And the pain don’t phase me
I tell myself one little lie
And the pain don’t phase me
I tell myself one little lie
And the pain don’t phase me
I tell myself one little lie
And the pain don’t phase me
I tell myself one little lie
And the pain don’t phase me
