Lyrics

[Verse 1]
How he makes her feel
When he look her in her eyes and tell her
I love you, yeah
He seems so for real
When he whispers and says
I'll never leave you, no
[Verse 2]
And he speaks them words to her heart
And make her feel like she on top of the world, yeah, oh, my
Then turn around and break her heart
And make her feel like the whole world's on top of her, oh
And that's enough to make her talk about it
[Verse 3]
When a man lies, he pierces the very soul of that woman
Yes he does, yeah
I'm just tellin' the truth
When a man lies, he kills every reason she ever had
For lovin' him, yeah
Mirror, I'm talkin' to you, yeah
[Verse 4]
How he promised her things
While he's makin' sweet love to her mind
Sellin' big dreams, yeah
That's what he do, or he can paint the scene
With every word out of his mouth
Make her wanna believe, oh, she believes
That everything he say is true
[Verse 5]
Now all the dreams she bought and the tales he told
Cinderella to the old pot of gold
Broke up for a heart and stole the glory
And it left me here to tell the story
[Verse 6]
When a man lies, he pierces the very soul of that woman
Yes he does, yeah
And I'm just tellin' the truth
When a man lies, he kills every reason she ever had
For lovin' him, yeah
Mirror, I'm talkin' to you, hey
[Verse 7]
Now don't y'all go and shoot all the messenger, no
'Cause I was sent here to deliver
Y'all can go ahead and call me a lawyer
To the day I'll represent the woman
[Verse 8]
'Cause when a man lies, he pierces the very soul of that woman
Yes he does, hey
And I'm just tellin' the truth
When a man lies, he kills every reason she ever had
Yeah
Mirror, I'm talkin' to you
[Verse 9]
When a man lies, he pierces the very soul of that woman
(See, you done went and made the biggest mistake of my life)
Hey, it was all over, now
She packed all her bags up and moved out of town
When a man lies, he kills every reason she ever had
For lovin' him, yeah
