Quit telling me lies
So long since you were here with me
“It wasn’t me, but some wild conspiracy”
Thought you’d learned from your failed tries
Not buying anymore, so quit telling me lies
Trust me, it’s going to roll better this time
I hit the brakes, baby I stop it on a dime
Dog shit hit with a mower, stench really flies
Plug my nose and move on, quit telling me lies
Things were going to be so sweet
Everyday a wondrous loving treat
Sunsets and kisses, shared sunrise
But none of it was true! Quit telling me lies
Not smiling, no happy day, just abused
No brand-new shiny love, so over-used
Time to move on, no more lonely cries
Can’t deal with that, quit telling me lies
What made you try again? Dry up all the wells?
No longer want to be on your list of kiss and tells
No water, no sunlight, that feeling withers and dies
Repotted in another garden, so quit telling me lies
