I Lied

I lied, I lied, I lied, to keep you from breaking my heart

Even though I said I didn't love you, I lied, I lied

Even though I said I didn't need you, I lied, I lied

To keep you from breakin' my heart, ooh

To keep you from breakin' my heart, ooh

Even though I said don't touch me, I lied, I lied

I can't fall for you, can't give my all to you

Can't let you think that I'ma let the game stall for you

Gotta protect me, you gotta sweat me

You said you thought you was ready and I said, "Let's see"

But I ain't mean that, I need some fuckin' proof

'Cause what happens if I fall in love, then you cut me loose?

You just a heart breaker, won't let you break mine

'Cause I'll be smashin' windows and cuttin' them brake lines

I lied 'cause who knew that if I should let myself go with you

Who knows, who knows, so I lied

To keep you from breakin' my heart, ooh

To keep you from breakin' my heart, ooh

Even though I said fuck you, I lied, I lied

I thought eventually you would let me go

That was my insecurities and my ego

Missed my jump shot, missed my free throw

Miss the way we kiss, miss the D, yo

Man, it was good while it lasted

That shit wasn't real, it was magic

If it was a record, it would have been classic

But fuck you though, orgasmic

I guess this is what I gotta do to keep me from fallin'

Stallin' the truth, who knew what you'd do if I let you in?

My momma ain't raised no fool

I, I'm not your usual typical type

Who would protect me if I never hide?

Fallin' so fast, I'm afraid of you

So I lied, I lied, I lied

To keep you from breakin' my heart, ooh

To keep you from breakin' my heart, oh

I lied, ooh, baby, oh

'Cause who knew that if I let myself go with you?

It's over now, goodbye, love

You'll stay, you'll stay in my heart forever
