The ninth drink delivers The lines you've prewritten And a voice like yours admits no wrong I swirl the ice inside my glass Drowning out the very last words I should say

I guess that Everybody’s got a trusty lie they tell We fool ourselves with our own sleight of hand Everybody’s got a trusty lie they tell to themselves Keep it in your head Careful now, don’t let it wriggle out

One sincere sentence And six years is ended Instead my voice sounds strange when I speak to you How’d we wind up here? Why do I stay? Repeat it one last time: "It's just for one more day”

‘Cuz everybody’s got a trusty lie they tell We fool ourselves with our own sleight of hand Everybody’s got a trusty lie they keep to themselves It sounds right your head Careful now…

Oh! If I met you here tonight For the first time I’d run the other way Oh! That’s a good one!

Everybody’s got a trusty lie they tell to themselves It’s safe inside your head So careful now… Careful now… Careful now… Don’t let it… Wriggle out
