I always kept my head down when I was a at school
I knew how to make them laugh, I was a holy fool
I told them everything that they wanted to hear
But I never told them the truth
I was the boy
Who never cried wolf
The money comes and goes, I know that's true
But I can't help but think, it's not what we're born to do
I gave them everything that they wanted to have
But I never gave them the truth
I was the boy
Who never cried wolf
You know I never told a soul
You know I never told a soul
Told a soul
I fell for the first one who fell for me
You see, that's how I thought it was meant to be
I told her everything that she wanted to hear
But I never told her the truth
I was the boy
Who never cried wolf
I was the boy
Who never cried wolf
