"Shady Lies" lyrics - IAIN MATTHEWS

If you've handed me one
You've handed me a thousand shady lies
If I needed someone
I found someone to cut me down to size
With every word you say
I'm learnin' every day
And you keep handin' me
These shady, shady lies.

Don't you want me to be
Someone you can lean on when you're down?
Don't you want me to be
Waitin' when you turn your head around?

I think I must be mad
I think that I've been had
'Cause you keep handin' me
These shady, shady lies
You're hidin' your smile for the last time
Don't mention my name when I'm gone
If you've handed me one
You've handed me a thousand shady lies.

Don't you want me to be
Someone you can lean on when you're down?
Don't you want me to be
Waitin' when you turn your head around?
