You always come home late, but I know where you've been.
Hard to deny it when you smell so much like sin.
The lies I realize when I check your pager
And now I know the price of angels in cages.
I see it in your face.
Stop trying to explain.
Just so much I can take of your truth crashing down.
Why don't you lie to me?
Why don't you just lie to me?
Why don't you lie to me?
So I can think that you are worth it.
Don't seem so shocked to see I figured it out.
It's just that often, your motive calls the house.
I can still smell him, the smell of his liquor.
Can't tell you're sorry, I know you think you're sorry.
You keep on talking, but I don't want to hear it.
What do you tell him, do you tell him you feel it?
This time I mean it, I really, really mean it.
I want you to lie to me. I need you to lie to me.
Why can't, Why can't, Why can't,
Why can't you lie to me.
Hard to deny it when you smell so much like sin.
The lies I realize when I check your pager
And now I know the price of angels in cages.
I see it in your face.
Stop trying to explain.
Just so much I can take of your truth crashing down.
Why don't you lie to me?
Why don't you just lie to me?
Why don't you lie to me?
So I can think that you are worth it.
Don't seem so shocked to see I figured it out.
It's just that often, your motive calls the house.
I can still smell him, the smell of his liquor.
Can't tell you're sorry, I know you think you're sorry.
You keep on talking, but I don't want to hear it.
What do you tell him, do you tell him you feel it?
This time I mean it, I really, really mean it.
I want you to lie to me. I need you to lie to me.
Why can't, Why can't, Why can't,
Why can't you lie to me.
