NO MORE LIES

Lyrics

[INTRO VOCAL] How much can one heart take… Before it finally breaks? [VERSE 1] You were shot twice in the darkest night I wiped the blood and held on tight I didn’t know what morning would bring We’d already lost almost everything I couldn’t lose you, not that way So I stayed when I could’ve walked away But every scar and every lie Still comes back and asks me why [PRE-CHORUS] I stood beside you I never walked away But I’m running out of reasons To keep doing the same [CHORUS] No more lies, no more games No more hiding from the pain I’ve given everything I’ve got Don’t throw away the little we’ve got Leave the past where it belongs We can’t keep dragging it along If you really want us to survive Then this time, make it right [VERSE 2] We lost so much along the way But I never gave your secrets away I kept my mouth shut, I took the blame While you told everybody our name You didn’t need them to break us down You told too many people what went down Now there’s nowhere left to hide And I’m still standing by your side [PRE-CHORUS] I stood beside you I never walked away But I’m running out of reasons To keep doing the same [CHORUS] No more lies, no more games No more hiding from the pain I’ve given everything I’ve got Don’t throw away the little we’ve got Leave the past where it belongs We can’t keep dragging it along If you really want us to survive Then this time, make it right [GUITAR BREAK] 8–10 seconds. Dirty, melodic 80s guitar lick. Keep it short and get straight back into the vocal. [BRIDGE] I’m not asking you to change the past I’m asking how long this time will last You want another chance? Then show me why ‘Cause I’m done believing Every damn lie [FINAL CHORUS] No more lies, no more games No more hiding from the pain I’ve given everything I’ve got Don’t throw away the little we’ve got Leave the past where it belongs We can’t keep dragging it along If you really want us to survive Then this time, make it right No more lies! Dirty guitar riff — final drum hit — stop.
