Love came out of a blue and white shirt you wore
To greet your fans in
It oozed out the cellar floor and filed up the space around my hands
I wore a green dress sometimes to smile at you
I was a kid and you asked me for truth
I said, “do you wanna know the truth?”
Then hold your hand up to my face and make me lie to you
Tell me all the world’s a mess, until I cry for you
Make me give away my faith so I can try for you
And baby keep on telling me lies and I will lie for you
Baby I would lie for you
Do you know who your friends are?
Do you know who you’re working for?
Do you know what you did when you did when you did what you did before?
Do you know who your mama is?
Do you know where your children are?
Do you know what you did when you did when you did what you did before?
Then hold your hand up to my face and make me lie to you
Tell me all the world’s a mess, until I cry for you
Make me give away my faith so I can try for you
And baby keep on telling me lies and I will lie for you
Honey I would lie for you
