The whitest lie

If I lied, said I was fine, would that mean anything?
The more you know the less you eventually find out
Like in school they never said the world was split up into sides
And they called them those who kill and those who die

And if living is a vice I wish no virtue
What could go wrong?

Hold it close tonight
And say that it's alright even if it's not
Of all the lies I've told in my life
To promise I would never leave you alone
Would be the whitest one

What providence. What recompense to amount to anything
But uneasy lies the head that wears the crown
To which lie do you subscribe?
Because you have to choose a pill
If you haven't learned that yet my friend, you will

And if living is a vice I wish no virtue
What could go wrong?

Hold it close tonight
And say that it's alright even if it's not
Of all the lies I've told in my life
To promise I would never leave you alone
Would be the whitest one

Be honest
Cause heaven knows if I fail at this, I'd probably fail at anything
My head, it spins
When I think about where I'd end up if nobody was listening

Hold it close tonight
And say that it's alright even if it's not
Of all the lies I've told in my life
To promise I would never leave you alone
Would be the whitest one
