I can't risk a broken heart
Or have something tear us apart
Having us saying goodbye
No darling
So I hide the parts you won't like
And sweep all the dirt out of sight
Tell you everything's alright
My darling
Yes the truth would set you free
Unchained and too far from me
So the lies that I tell are to keep us safe and happy
All the lies that I tell are to keep you from straying from me
Yes the truth would set you free
Unchained and too far from me
I can't take another loss
Bad luck has ran through its course
Left my heart throbbing in pain
Oh darling
So I do what I got to do
To keep me from singing the blues
This is the path that I choose
My Darling
Yes the truth would set you free
Unchained and too far from me
So the lies that I tell are to keep us safe and happy
All the lies that I tell are to keep you from straying from me
Yes the truth would set you free
Unchained and too far from me
