"Perfect Lie" lyrics - ASHTON IRWIN

[Intro:]
Dun dun, dun-dun-dun, dun dun dun dun dun
Dun dun, dun-dun-dun, dun dun dun dun dun
Dun dun, dun-dun-dun, dun dun dun dun dun

Neck aches and my back might break
I'm scared of the future like everybody else
Hand shakes on a highway that takes us straight to the grave
It's the secret that sounds (Shh)

[Pre-Chorus:]
Everybody fakes it 'til they make it
Everybody loves it 'til they hate it

La-la-lie, la-la-la-la-lie, I'll sing it 'til I cry tonight
La-la-lie, la-la-la-la-lie, I'll taste it just the one more time
I'll try to love without hating you
I'll try to blink without losing you
I'll try to leave without missing you

[Chorus:]
I can tell a perfect lie
(I can tell a perfect lie)
(I can tell a perfect lie)

Mistakes are the stories that take us straight to the stage
It's the heartaches that sells
Strange brain, take a look at my cage
You'll see all I care about is feeding myself

[Pre-Chorus:]
Everybody fakes it 'til they make it
Everybody loves it 'til they hate it

La-la-lie, la-la-la-la-lie, I'll sing it 'til I cry tonight
La-la-lie, la-la-la-la-lie, I'll taste it just the one more time
I'll try to love without hating you
I'll try to blink without losing you
I'll try to leave without missing you

[Chorus:]
I can tell a perfect lie
I can tell a perfect lie (I can tell a perfect lie)
I can tell a perfect lie (I can tell a perfect lie)
(I can tell a perfect lie)
(I can tell a perfect lie)

[Outro:]
Dun dun, dun-dun-dun, dun dun dun dun dun
