I Could Have Lied by Red Hot Chili Peppers

verse

There must be something in the way I feel

That she don’t want me to feel

The stare she bares cut me

I don’t care

You see so what if I bleed

I could never change

Just what I feel

My face will never show

What is not real

A mountain never seems to have

The need to speak

A look that shares so many seek

The sweetest feeling

I got from you

The things I said to you were true

pre-chorus

I could never change

Just what I feel

My face will never show

What is not real

chorus

I could have lied I’m such a fool

My eyes could never, never, never

Keep their cool

Showed her and I told her how

She struck me but I’m fucked up now

verse

But now she’s gone

Yes, she’s gone away

A soulful song

That would not stay

You see she hides ‚cause she is scared

But I don’t care

I won’t be spared

chorus

I could have lied I’m such a fool

My eyes could never, never, never

Keep their cool

Showed her and I told her how

She struck me but I’m fucked up now

I could have lied I’m such a fool

My eyes could never, never, never

Keep their cool

Showed her and I told her how

She struck me but I’m fucked up now

outro

Fucked up
