Lying To Make You Love Me - Shaylen

I got problems, I got symptoms

Like these walls I’m stuck behind

I got trauma, been the victim

Guilty conscience stains the minds

You make me feel bad for being real

Tell me, why is it so wrong?

You got problems, you got symptoms

And it’s me they’re landing on

Now I hope you understand what I’m fighting

And I hope you understand I been hiding

If I tell you all my secrets, just don’t hold it above me

What you’re thinking of me, oh

'Cause I’m lying to make you love me (Yeah, I’m lying to make you)

I’m lying to make you love me

(Yeah, I’m lying to make you, lying to make you)

I start shaking, can’t catch my breath

When I think I caused you pain

So it’s taken all of my strength just to rewire my brain

You and me don’t need a conversation

No, I don’t need any validation

No escaping, you’re not changing

It’s on me to walk away

Now I hope you understand what I’m fighting (Hope you understand)

And I hope you understand I been hiding (I been hiding)

If I tell you all my secrets, just don’t hold it above me

What you’re thinking of me, oh

'Cause I’m lying to make you love me (Yeah, I’m lying to make you)

I’m lying to make you love me (Yeah, I’m lying to make you)

'Cause I’m lying to make you love me, yeah

(Yeah, I’m lying to make you)

I’m lying to make you love me (I'm lying, I’m lying, I’m lying)

(Yeah, I’m lying to make you)

I’m sick and tired of lying 'bout who I’m meant to be

I’m tried of trying, oh

I’m sick and tired of lying 'bout who I’m meant to be

I’m tried of trying, oh (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Now I hope you understand what I’m fighting

So I hope you understand I been hiding (I been hiding)

If I tell you all my secrets, just don’t hold it above me

What you’re thinking of me, oh

I’m lying to make you love me
