I told you the day we met That I'd never make you regret Choosing me to stand by your side Swear I had an honest plan To make myself an honest man But the ones best-laid often go awry And I know good and well That I'm goin' straight to hell For all the things I put you through Yes, my biggest regret in life The thing that keeps me up at night The day I learned how to lie to you See, I've long set fire to things I love Told myself I don't deserve To ever have and hold that kind of glory But I'll come back in a couple days To search the ash and memories And start paintin' my side of the story And I know good and well That I'm goin' straight to hell For all the things I put you through Yes, my biggest regret in life The thing that keeps me up at night The day I learned how to lie to you ♪ The lies, they started short and small But then they grew up big and tall Like that old oak tree out in our front yard And without warning, late last May A branch, it snapped and then gave way It tumbled down and tore our home apart Yeah, it tumbled down and tore right through your heart And I lied when I told you I was different I lied when I told you I could change Now I'm stuck in Kansas City Wishing I could go back to The day I learned how to lie to you Oh, the day I learned how to lie to you Yeah, the day I learned how to lie to you
