First I'm afraid to say it
everyone will know
what they ask for
I don't know
You left your voice
In a kingdom I've destroyed
Rumors and lies yeah Rumors and lies
Don't let them catch you speaking those
Rumors and lies
Who slept with your girl?
Who got with your guy?
There ain't a drop of truth to them
Who taught you everything you need to learn in life
like how to dry your eyes
and how to clean the knife
so brush off your shoulders
and put my on ice
the questions men are asking point to
rumors and lies
rumors and lies yeah rumors and lies
there ain't a drop of truth to them
rumors and lies
rumors and lies, a suspect device
you're young and you're still dumb
and so i'll forgive you twice
rumors and lies
rumors and lies
rumors and lies
rumors
Don't ever tempt the fates
into what they'd aught to
some people get their messages
by the bottle
so how will you feel when your ears' burning off
and the tip of your tongue turns to dust?
