I hear the lines on the telegraph

Buzzin' my head, I have to shut them out

My ears to the ground, but I try to stand up

Straighten out

Forget my doubt

˜Cause I couldn't bear to lose you

You're the only one I care for

But I can't lock out the rumors

I shut my eyes so I won't see because



One little lie can go a long way

One little lie can go a long way

Would I learn to trust again someday?



I try to ask but my tongue gets tied

When I guess the answer

If you turned your head away from me

I know I'd stand there forever

Caught out in time by a line

That I wanted you to deny

And you'd laughed and laugh ˜til I cried and cried

I can't shut out the rumors

Burning inside me all the time



REPEAT CHORUS



Every day is turning away

I feel something new

If I can't put my trust in you then

We've got nothing worth hanging on to



REPEAT CHORUS TO FADE
