Liar Liar, Fiction Daddy you called me
As you threw these books down the stairs, and you said
Why don't you why don't you try a little harder
Start acting like someone who cares

I said I'm trying to act the best way I can
I'm sick of being someone I'm not
Its too cold to swim in the wintertime
But sweatshirts in the summer is just too hot

Keep me safe
Keep me sad
Keep me where you're at
Keep me safe
Keep me sad
I don't wanna be someone new

There' no spirits in my room
Though I could use the friend
The kind of one that just holds your hand
And says things will be okay in the end

No there's no skeletons in my closet
Just t shirts I outgrew
And a pile of jeans and an old coat on a hook
That stands there looking like you

Keep me safe
Keep me sad
Keep me where you're at
Keep me safe
Keep me sad
I don't wanna be someone new

These new clothes, are far too big for me
These new clothes, cover what I don't want you to see
These new clothes, make me unrecognizable
To anyone who thinks they know me

I've seen what the mirror has to say about me
As it hanged itself on the wall
But no matter how hard I try I'll never understand why, I ever made an effort at all

Now I've got nothing to wear in the winter
Cos I wanted to leave all that behind
Now these are new clothes, they don't keep me warm
The colour fades, the arms are torn, my soul is worn, please don't make me change

Keep me safe
Keep me sad
Keep me where you're at
Keep me safe
Keep me sad
I don't wanna be someone new
