Mentiroso

I didn't want to lie
You made me a liar
Today I say what you want to hear
As an act of mercy

I didn't want to run away
You made me a fugitive
To avoid arguing
I make up some reason

So I keep being
The same as I have been
And if I am different
I am only with you

In order to draw
A smile on your face
Lying became an exercise
I'm a liar

A lie that makes you happy
Is worth more than a truth that embitters your life
A lie will make my nose grow in exchange for freedom
And for holding onto my life
What do I do for you to understand
That if I lie it's because you would never believe
That wherever I am
I will always be thinking of you

What fault do I have
Of the crime and the punishment
Of believing that for love
We stop being friends

If you noticed me
It wasn't for being a saint
What you liked about me
Today causes you tears

Why do I start the war
Being honest with you
Lying is a way
Of saying I love you

In order not to be the target
Of your worst anger
I lie like a sick person
And looking into your eyes

A lie that makes you happy
Is worth more than a truth that embitters your life
A lie will make my nose grow in exchange for freedom
And for holding onto my life
What do I do for you to understand
That if I lie it's because you would never believe
That wherever I am
I will always be thinking of you

A lie that makes you happy
Is worth more than a truth that embitters your life
A lie will make my nose grow in exchange for freedom
And for holding onto my life
What do I do for you to understand
That if I lie it's because you would never believe
That wherever I am
I will always be thinking of you

That wherever I am
I will always be thinking of you
