LIE

Lie
Sung by David Cook, 2008
(I want to especially dedicate this song to #8: I used to imagine he's the one singing this)

You whisper that that you were getting tired (Yes, I am tired of waiting)
Got a look in your eye, looks a lot like goodbye (I finally did my goodbyes)
Hold on to your secrets tonight (He actually told me that's it's okay for me not to reveal who #8 is)
I don’t want to know
I’m okay with this silence
It’s truth that I don’t want to end

You’re hiding regret in your smile (I regret na hindi naging kami)
There’s a storm in your eyes
I’ve seen coming for a while (Guess I got too tired of waiting for the wrong guy)
Hang onto the past tense tonight (Past tense kasi we're just friends para sa kanya)
Don’t say a word
I’m okay with the quiet
The truth is going to change everything (Eventually, if I did tell him, it's gonna jumble up all the foundations we had as FRIENDS)

So lie to me and tell me that it’s going to be all right. (Yes, Pau, it's true. I lied about removing him from it all)
So lie to me and tell me we’re going to make it through the night.
I don’t mind if you wait before you tear me apart (If I were his NL Girl, I won't tear him up. He doesn't have to undergo another heart ache... But NL Girl is NOT me... Sayang.. He'll have to endure the pain of being rejected..)
Look me in the eye
Lie, lie, lie
Lie, lie, lie

I know that there’s no turning back (Now that he knows, there's no backing out)
If we put too much light on this we’ll see through all the cracks
Let’s stay in the dark one more night (Meaning continue believing the lie that we're friends when all along I felt something more for him)
Don’t want to know
I’m okay with the silence
It’s truth that I don’t want to end

Don’t want to believe in this ending
Let the cameras roll on
Keep pretending
Tomorrow’s all wrong if you walk away
Just stay. (I really wish he'd tell me this... But season has come. It has gone. I have said too many goodbyes. Hit my head on walls to hard. Had my heart broken to ashes, it cannot be revived and glued back in place. I am tired to waiting... Waiting long.. Waiting for the wrong one.. Waiting for answers to prayers I know I am pushing on God. Sana hindi na lang kami naging magkaibigan. Letting go might be a lot easier to do. But then again, partly, I am still living part of that lie... I don't want to lie anymore!)
