Lost Positives - Silverstein

Can you know what’s true?

Living lies that kept me close to you

Lying is letting you go

Replay a miserable script full of words that I won’t say

And I’m tired of trying to outrun a promise I should have never made

And I changed the locks so I could get through

The days and nights I never asked you

Can you know what’s true?

Living lies that kept me close to you

Lying is letting you go on

Lying is letting you go

Can you know what’s true?

If lying is leaving

Truth is just believing

Last night I came around to the truth whispered in my ear

In the light of day this sleight of hand romance is cold and crystal clear

So I waited long enough to show you

That I could change the way I know you

Can you know what’s true?

Living lies that kept me close to you

Lying is letting you go on

Lying is letting you go

Can you know what’s true?

If lying is leaving

If lying is leaving

Truth is just believing

Can you know what’s true?

The regret in your eyes tells me there’s nothing left to lose

Can you know what’s true?

Living lies that kept me close to you

Lying is letting you go on

Lying is letting you go

Can you know what’s true?

Lying is letting you go
