Intro:    


               
I drift away to a place
                 
Another kind of life
            
Take away the pain
               
I create my paradise
             
Everything I've held
           
Has hit the wall
               
What used to be yours
                  
Isn't yours at all


                              
Falling apart, and all that I'm asking
                         
Is it a crime, am I overreacting


                 
Oh,    he's under my skin
                                 
Just give me something to get rid of him
                          
I've got a reason now to bury this alive
                 
Another little white lie


   


           
So what you had didn't fit

Among the pretty things

Never fear, never fear

I now know where you've been

Braids have been un-tied

As ribbons fall away

Leave the consequence

But my tears you'll taste


                           
Falling apart and all that I question
                             
Is this a dream or is this my lesson


                 
Oh,    he's under my skin
                                 
Just give me something to get rid of him
                          
I've got a reason now to bury this alive
                 
Another little white lie



I don't believe I'll be alright

I don't believe I'll be OK
                                    
I don't believe how you've thrown me away

I do believe you didn't try

I do blame you for every lie

When I look in your eyes, I don't see mine


                 
Oh,    he's under my skin
                                 
Just give me something to get rid of him
                          
I've got a reason now to bury this alive
                 
Another little white lie


                        
Ohhhhhhhhh my permission to sin
                            
You might have started my reckoning
                              
I've got a reason now to bury him alive
Another little white lie
