If these walls could talk they would tell a story
We live in a house but not a home
When we're behind closed doors
No one ever sees the fighting
They see us together but inside we're alone
But reality's that honesty doesn't live here anymore
When this trust is gone it all goes wrong
You forget what you're fighting for
You tell me you love me, I tell you I care
But when we talk to each other it's like nobody's there
The truth is the only thing really between you and I
is a perfect lie
With smiling faces we cover up the problem
And nobody sees through the disguise
Whatever happened to the way we used to be?
Now nothin is left for us but denial
But reality's that honesty doesn't live here anymore
When this trust is gone it all goes wrong
You forget what you're fighting for
You tell me you love me, I tell you I care
But when we talk to each other it's like nobody's there
The truth is the only thing really between you and I
is a perfect lie
Perfect lie
You tell me you love me, I tell you I care
But when we talk to each other it's like nobody's there
It's never our fault, no one takes the blame
We just stopped listenin, it all sounds the same
The truth is the only thing really between you and I
is a perfect lie
