[Lyric] I Lied (The Pony (AUS))

[Verse 1]
I told you
The sky was orange and grey
And I told you
I'd never try to run away
I told you
That it was gonna rain silver dollars
And I told you
You could walk, and know that I'd follow

[Chorus]
But I lied
Yeah! I lied
I lied to you darlin' to keep us from breakin' apart

[Verse 2]
I told you
We were pink, when we were obviously blue
And I told you
It wouldn't hurt me to drink some of that poisonous brew
I told you
That we ran and we never crawled
And I told you
That this band, is worth nothin' to me at all
[Chorus]
But I lied
Yeah! I lied
I lied to you darlin' to keep us from breakin' apart

[Verse 3]
I told you
I dug a silent... end to every day
And I told you
That I was satisfied in every way
I told you
You'd never have to cover your tracks
I even told you I believed you when you told me that damn crazy story 'bout Raquel Welch bein' made out of some kind of wax

[Chorus]
But I lied
Yeah! I lied
I lied to you darlin' to keep us from breakin' apart

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 4]
I was silly enough, to think
It would keep us together
I was crazy enough, to think
You'd believe me for... ever
But I was... wrong
I was... wrong!
I was wrong to believe it would keep us from breakin'
In two!
[Chorus & Outro]
But still I lied
Yeah! I lied
I lied to you darlin' to keep us from breakin' apart
I lied to you darlin' to keep us from breakin' apart
I lied to you darlin' to keep us
From breakin'
Apart
