​white lies

[Verse 1]
Lines are growing thin
I'm no longer sleeping in
The shirt you met me in
I don't know if we don't talk
Because I'm in the city
Pretending that I'm busy

[Verse 2]
Meant to come back home yesterday
But I delayed the train to stay alone
Still went to the station
To imagine you in Euston
Smiling like you used to

[Pre-Chorus]
And who knows what I'd say
If you were real today

[Chorus]
Sometimes I tell white lies
Like I will always want you
No matter the rocks above you
And yes, sometimes I tell white lies
Like I don't wanna leave you
I don't want a life without you
But the truth is maybe

[Verse 2]
I do time to time
Picture someone giving me
The version of my life
I imagined first with you
So long before you lost us
God knows that we lost us

[Pre-Chorus]
And who knows what that would've looked like
A world where you didn't keep changing your mind?

[Chorus]
And sometimes I tell white lies
Like I will always want you
No matter the rocks above you
Oh, sometimes I tell white lies
Like I'm gonna up and leave you
And I want a life without you
But the truth is maybe
I don't
