You lied to me
Right through your teeth
Your phone went off
From across the room
Tell me it was your sister
You couldn't look at me
Before you ran away
And hid in the bathroom
You didn't have to say a thing
I wasn't asking to know
You didn't have to tell me
Anything at all
You made the choice
To tell me a lie
Her contact isn't the same
I recognized that name
Mira had texted you
And you hid it from me
So why did you lie?
You say it's because
I always check your phone
How can i do this
If we aren't living
Under the same roof?
How can i do this
If I'm backing off so you
Have the space you deserve?
I did what you asked
I've cleaned up my act
I've changed how i speak
My entire way of thinking
Transformed in under a week
I'm not the angry woman
You couldn't live with
I've changed for you
I asked few things of you
Do not hide things from me
Do not speak down to me
Do not betray me
Do not lie to me
But you did
You lied to me
