Four Year Strong – Learn To Love The Lie lyrics

I wish it was just another day
Another ordinary, not extraordinary
Just a boring Sunday morning
When doing nothing’s the only something we’ve got planned
But not today
We're falling apart and it's showing that we're
Basically just trapped in captivity
Wishing our way out

Just let me cross my fingers behind my back
And I’ll swear on anything you want me to after that
I’ve heard that if I cross my heart then I’d have to die
If you don’t want to say goodbye
Then I guess you’ll have to learn to love the lie

You and me, we’re really nothing but enemies
Pretending we're not meant to be

I don’t want to be the one to stay
I don’t want to be the one that got away
And if I’m being honest
You couldn’t get rid of me anyway
I don’t want to be the one to stay
What the hell, for heaven's sake
I don’t want to be the one that got away

If Massachusetts had a loyalty
I hope it wouldn’t choose you over me
And if you’re wondering what keeps me up at night
It's thinking that you might be right

Just let me cross my fingers behind my back
And I’ll swear on anything you want me to after that
I’ve heard that if I cross my heart then I’d have to die
If you don’t want to say goodbye
Then I guess you’ll have to learn to love the lie

You and me, we’re really nothing but enemies
Pretending that’s exactly how it's supposed to be

I don’t want to be the one to stay
I don’t want to be the one that got away
And if I’m being honest
You couldn’t get rid of me anyway
I don’t want to be the one to stay
What the hell, for heaven's sake
I don’t want to be the one that got away

You can say what you want about me
The old me would not apologize
You can do what you want without me
If only I could keep us from colliding
Overanalyzing
Every move we make we think we're just surviving
But slowly we were dying
Until the rattle somehow brings us back to life
So let's learn to love the lie

I don’t want to be the one to stay
I don’t want to be the one that got away
And if I’m being honest
You couldn’t get rid of me anyway
I don’t want to be the one to stay
What the hell, for heaven's sake
I don’t want to be the one that got away
(Just let me cross my fingers behind my back)
I don’t want to be the one that got away
(And I’ll swear on anything you want me to after that)
I don’t want to be the one that got away
(If I cross my heart then I’d have to die)
But I don't wanna say goodbye
But we have to laugh to learn to love the lie
