Lie by The Sterns Lyrics

Ooh whoa-oh-oh
Ooh whoa-oh-oh
Ooh whoa-oh-oh
Ooh whoa-oh-oh

Four years without blinking, sanity sinking
Committed to put myself away
Two nights in Manhattan, I would save Latin
But they never tell you glory fades
Glory fades

Five evenings consoling, virtues extolling
Little white lies, biography
Three days in king's basement, winning this race meant
Sinful salvation unto me

I'll never forge foolish promises blindly, impassioned surrender
Forever is far too long just to lie here beside you
Ooh whoa-oh-oh
Ooh whoa-oh-oh
Ooh whoa-oh-oh
Ooh whoa-oh-oh
Nine naysayers warning, innocence mourning
Higher education recommends
Twelve weekends in motion, envious notions
I'll sing, "This is where the story ends"
Story ends

Six skylines afire, living a liar
Deadpan desire driving me
One hour on the parkway, a voice in the dark says
Confirming suspicions sets you free

I'll never forge foolish promises blindly, impassioned surrender
Forever is far too long just to lie here beside you
Ooh whoa-oh-oh
Ooh whoa-oh-oh
Ooh whoa-oh-oh
Ooh whoa-oh-oh

I'll never forge foolish promises blindly, impassioned surrender
Forever is far too long just to lie here beside you
Ooh whoa-oh-oh
Ooh whoa-oh-oh
Ooh whoa-oh-oh
Ooh whoa-oh-oh

One, two, three, four
