Taking Back Honesty

So this is the way you wanted things to go
I could sit here pretending that I didn't know
But we both know the truth is that you were the one in the dark
Oh what a change for me to be the one leading you on

Cause its not a lie
(I made you believe it)
Cause its no mistake
(And you just repeat it)
Cause its no lie
(I made you believe it)
Yeah its no mistake
(And you just repeat it)

So this is the way that I'll let you know
I could sit here pretending that I didn't go
Behind your back while smiling to your face
Oh what a change for me to be the one leading the way

Cause its not a lie
(I made you believe it)
Cause its no mistake
(And you just repeat it)
Cause its no lie
(I made you believe it)
Yeah its no mistake
(And you just repeat it)

This is the way that things ended up
One of us looking clean, the other face down in the mud
And we could pretend that we both had the other fooled
But I'd never try take your place as most deceptive

And you know

I could do worse than to (Let you)
You could do worse than to (Let me)
I could do worse to (You)
You could do worse to (Me)

I could do worse than to (Lie to you)
You could do worse than to (Lie to me)
I could do worse to you than you, ever did to me
So lets end this on one final note, make this cut clean

I could do worse than to let you lie to me
And you could do worse than to let me lie to you
If we both pretend, if we both believe
Then I think we could get to how, things ought to be
