[Intro]
you said we were solid…
guess that meant something different to you
[Verse 1]
you stood beside me, called it real
talked like someone I could trust and feel
same space, same late night talk
but something shifted in the way you walked
you knew the truth but let it bend
smiled like you were still my friend
I wasn’t asking for perfect lines
just honesty between the signs
[Pre-Chorus]
it’s not the silence…
it’s what you hide inside it
[Chorus]
lies, lies, from people like you
said you had me, I believed it too
I gave you space, I gave you trust
you gave me words that turned to dust
lies, lies, I hear them clear
louder now that you’re not here
you didn’t have to break it this way
just say the truth… don’t drift away
[Verse 2]
you switched it up when I looked away
different tone on a different day
I felt the gap before I knew
the version of you that wasn’t true
not enemies, not strangers’ games
just quiet shifts and subtle changes
that’s what hits the hardest part
when fake feels close to where you start
[Pre-Chorus]
I didn’t need proof…
I felt it before it showed
[Chorus]
lies, lies, from people like you
said you had me, I believed it too
I gave you time, I gave you care
you gave me something that wasn’t there
lies, lies, don’t say my name
like we’re still playing the same game
you didn’t have to disappear
you just had to be real here
[Bridge]
I don’t hate you, I just see
who you were… and who you tried to be
not everything loud is what breaks trust
sometimes it’s quiet that ruins us
[Chorus]
lies, lies, I see it now
no more guessing, no more “how”
I don’t need what you pretend
I don’t need that kind of friend
lies, lies, I let it go
truth shows up, even slow
you can keep what you don’t say
I won’t chase it anyway
[Outro]
we were close…
but not real enough
