[Intro]
C Bm Em
[Verse 1]
C Bm Em
Head underneath my pillow
C Bm Em
Melting fast like April snow
C Bm Em
I try to breathe, but it comes slow
C Bm Em
So I make do with what I know
[Verse 2]
C Bm Em
I lament in the pouring rain
C Bm Em
I'd rather wash away my pain
C Bm Em
Can't spare the time to entertain
C Bm Em
Afraid of loss, afraid of change
[Chorus]
C Bm Em
So I keep lying, lying to myself
C Bm Em
Tell myself I don't need help
C Bm Em
Lie myself right into hell
C Bm Em
Oh, I keep lying, lying to myself
[Verse 3]
C Bm Em
The moon is laughing at me now
C Bm Em
Voices echo in and out
C Bm Em
I made my peace with a war of doubt
C Bm Em
So I tilt my head back underground
[Verse 4]
C Bm Em
My brother took the brunt of it
C Bm Em
While I found weakness in my grip
C Bm Em
Took nine years to see what I missed
C Bm Em
Afraid that I'm too late for this
[Chorus]
C Bm Em
So I keep lying, lying to myself
C Bm Em
Tell myself I don't need help
C Bm Em
Lie myself right into hell
C Bm Em
Oh, I keep lying, lying to myself
