The Paper Kites
I’m Lying to You Cause I’m Lost
Shaking in the evening sun
Counting all the times I've run
Trying to be honest
Selfish from a point of view

How'd it get away from me?
Held up in the old Q.C
Watching out the window
Crying in my hotel room

Oh, I'll do anything that you want
Except what you're wanting from me

I'm lying to you cause I'm lost
Lying to you cause I'm lost
Lying to you cause I'm lost

My mother seems to know it all
Sensed it from a distant call
How's she so objective?
Tell me how you really feel

And I was once a maker of my time
A celebrated man of mind
Always feels a dream until the real sets in
Oh, I'll be anything that you want
Except what you want me to be

I'm lying to you cause I'm lost
Lying to you cause I'm lost
Lying to you cause I'm lost

So tell me darling what's it cost
When I'm lying to you cause I'm lost?
Lying to you cause I'm lost
I'm lost, I'm lost

I'll be anything
I'll be anything
Except what you want me to be
