We're living a lie
There's nothing we can do
At least we tried to see it through
I'm hurting, baby, and so are you
It's time to say goodbye
We're living a lie
Been living alone
Together apart, the things we do to each other
Is breaking our hearts
It's a shame
We're living in pain
We're living alone
Together apart
But there's a price to pay for living
When you're taking but not giving
You're trying to get to Heaven
But you ain't got no religion
♪
You stay out late, never come home for days
And I don't know where you were
Or who you were with
You wonder why I don't have sex with you anymore?
Well, without trust, how can there be love?
We're living a lie
And we both know it's time to say goodbye
But we're scared to go
We can just keep on pretending
That no one wants to end it
We're living a lie
We're living a lie
There's a price to pay for living
When you're taking but not giving
You're trying to get to Heaven
But you ain't got no religion
(We're living a lie)
(We're living a lie)
(We're living a lie)
You come home deranged
Acting guilty and strange
You've put a wound where the trust once was
And now, you try to shift the blame
I don't want our children to grow up
Amongst all this fighting and drug taking
It's heartbreaking
It's damaging them
Can't you see?
It's over
There's a time to pay for living
When you're taking but not giving
You're trying to get to Heaven
But you ain't got no religion
There's a price to pay for living
When you're taking but not giving
You're trying to get to Heaven
But you ain't got no religion
