Better To Lie - Cheryl, August

Yeah yeah, whoa oh

Said its better better

I never should’ve let her know

It was better to lie

I’m screaming

He’s talking over

I’ve asked him twice

Says he don’t know her

I raise a fist

He grabs my wrist

Ask for the truth

And this is what I get

I only asked him

Who called to sell your love?

He said he don’t know

But yet it was a girl

And he’s chillin

Like nothing of it

Now I’m tripping

I’m yelling up in public like

Oh

Can you please just be honest?

He tells me some stories, but I just don’t wanna know (Know)

No, I just don’t believe it

And all I want to do is keep screaming

And he’s like

Please calm down

Baby, because you’re talking too loud

I’m hollering

You won’t let the truth come out

So please calm down

Baby, because you’re firing too high (Too high)

Should I keep the truth inside?

So maybe it was better to lie

Said it’s better better

I never should’ve let her know

It was better to lie

Said it’s better better

I never should’ve let her know

It was better to lie

I walk away

So he comes after

I’m running quick

But he runs faster

Some explanation that I don’t need

He tells me «Baby, can you sit down and breathe?»

Freaking out, hysterical

Said you shouldn’t lie

Would’ve been better off

So silly me thinking you’re a good guy

Maybe now you know not to lie

Oh

Can you please just be honest?

He tells me some stories, but I just don’t wanna know (Know)

No, I just don’t believe it

And all I want to do is keep screaming

And he’s like

Please calm down

Baby, because you’re talking too loud

I’m hollering

You won’t let the truth come out

So please calm down

Baby, because you’re firing too high (Too high)

Should I keep the truth inside?

So maybe it was better to lie

Said it’s better better

I never should’ve let her know

It was better to lie

Said it’s better better

I never should’ve let her know

It was better to lie

I thought it would be better if I did you right

But I guess I should’ve told you lies

You lied, you lied

And now you’re standing there telling me

Please calm down

Baby, because you’re talking too loud

I’m hollering

You won’t let the truth come out

So please calm down

Baby, because you’re firing too high

Should I keep the truth inside?

So maybe it was better to lie

Said it’s better better

I never should’ve let her know

It was better to lie

Said it’s better better

I never should’ve let her know

It was better to lie
