Arcadia Bay - My Ways Lyrics

I don't wanna lie to your face
So please look away
But now these lies feel out of place
With you in my way
Cause you know my ways

You're the one that I'll confide to
The only one that I would lie to
And not feel okay about it
Not feel okay about it

To me, it's second nature
But you're changing my behavior
And I'm not mad about it
Not mad about it

Why can't I just be truthful
Maybe I'm still too youthful
Sometimes I just lose control
Lose control
But I don't I don't I don't

I don't wanna lie to your face
So please look away
But now these lies feel out of place
With you in my way
Cause you know my ways

I'm not saying I prefer it
Cause every time that you deter it
Somehow I feel encouraged
Like this time I care about my words yeah

Cause words hold weight
And I've been carrying it all
Until you came along
Oh until you came along yeah

Jesus, I need you
It's that simple cause all of my ways are against you
But yet you still love me
And you see through my attempts to make everything equal

I cannot balance this out
All I can do now is pray for your help
But your spirit is in me yeah you never stopped
All of my ways couldn't hold back the cross

I don't wanna lie to your face
So please look away
But now these lies feel out of place
With you in my way
Cause you know my ways
