Acoustic guitar and vocal recorded live in the kitchen. Everything else added after.

lyrics

The lie was little and white when it was new
Now it's turning black and blue
I'll get used to my favourite bruise

I just walked into the door
You need not know any more
You need never know
The lie

The lie is good for me and it's good for you
Will always be told and always be true
You'll get used to my favourite bruise

I just tripped over the floor
You need not know any more
You need never know
The lie

I know I'm gonna say too much
I know I'd better just shut up
You wonder why I don't talk much
I know I'm gonna say to much
The lie
I know I'm gonna say too much
I know I'd better just shut up
You wonder why I don't talk much
I'm scared I'm gonna say to much

The lie was little and white when it was new
Now it's turning black and blue

The sum pulses and swarms.... ... more
