The Little Lie
The little lie i told wasn't that big
 Just enough to hurt your feelings
 and only enough to make you tear up
 But you didn't cry
 I told you this little lie
 Not big enough for me
 It's only something I kept from you
 That could cause you to be mad
 To throw things
 To possibly hate me
 I told you this lie
 But the more upset you get
 I realize it's the truth
 Because if I would have been honest 
 I could possibly have you
 But I told you that lie
 Now you're with her
 And now that you know the truth
 You're unhappy
 And Angry
 And you can barely look at me
 That lie I happened to let slip
 Could have made us both happy
 If I only told it in truth
 Now this little lie I said
 This little lie I pretended to create
 Oh it has to rest in peace
 But the next time
 I think I'll lie a little less
 And not be so shy
 I just wanted your love
 And that is honestly not a lie
