I drift away to a place
Another kind of life
Take away the pain
I create my paradise
Everything I've held has hit the wall
What used to be yours, isn't yours at all

Falling apart and all that I'm asking
Is it a crime, am I over reacting?

Chorus
Oh, he's under my skin
Just give me something to get rid of him
I got a reason now to bury this alive
Another little white lie

So, what you had didn't fit among the pretty things
Never fear, never fear, I now know where you've been
Braids have been untied as ribbons fall away
Leave the consequence, my tears you'll taste

Falling apart and all that I question
Is this a dream or is this my lesson?

Chorus
Oh, he's under my skin
Just give me something to get rid of him
I've got a reason now to bury this alive
Another little white lie

I don't believe I'll be alright
I don't believe I'll be ok
I don't believe how you've thrown me away

I do believe you didn't try
I do blame you for every lie
When I look in your eyes I don't see mine

Chorus
Oh, he's under my skin
Just give me something to get rid of him
I've got a reason now to bury this alive
Another little white lie

Oh, my permission to sin
You might have started my reckoning
I've got a reason now to bury him alive
Another little white lie
