Slice through the air like you don't care,
Spin around and around until you dare
To tell me we were such a terrible pair
I pause to stare, did you ever care?
Did you ever care? Or was it just a mirror
Staring back at me, reading in red lipstick
"Babe I love you just like you love me."

Slice through the air like you don't care,
Spin around and around until you dare
To tell me I was flying through this impaired,
I told you that I loved you, but did not care.
You lie! Don't lie! You lie! Don't try!
And you try, and you try (and you lie).

So take back what you said about me
Leaving when you left me first
And this what I'm calling worse
Than when we skipped to third
Within one night, you know I heard
Your voice inside my head repeat
This is the smell of your defeat,
I loved the way you made me feel.

Slice through the air like you don't care,
Spin around and around until you dare
To tell me I was flying through this impaired,
I told you that I loved you, but did not care.
You lie! Don't lie! You lie! Don't try!
And you try, and you try (and you lie).

Slice through the air like you don't care,
Spin around and around until you dare,
Slice through the air like you don't care,
Spin around and around until you dare,
Call my name and tell me what I am,
I am nothing more than a grain of sand,
And from where I stand I cannot stand,
Don't hold your hand out, I don't care (anymore).

Because you lie! Don't lie! But you lie! So don't try!
Yet you try, and you try (and you lie).
You lie! Don't lie! You lie! Don't try!
And you try, and you try (and you lie, and you lie, and you lie)

While I wait as time passes me by, like a helicopter blade
Skimming past my face, I feel the rush of almost dying,
I think I've finally found my place
(But where do you belong in my catalog of halos and despairs?)
