I've been through hell this last year
Been sheddin' more than my tears
She asked me how did I get here
The truth would expose all of my fears

If I start off with a lie, I'm sorry
I don't wanna ruin this party
I got some scars and I still feel pain
So all that I say is that I needed a change

I've been so down, I feel better with you
Just now, I've found an escape from the truth
I've been let down, my heart's battered and bruised
So is lying so bad if it helps me lie here with you?

I met the devil in orlando
I wanted lovе, she wanted my soul
I promise you, I'm hеalin'
I'm sorry my heart's still bleedin'

I hate that I've gotta say sorry
I don't wanna ruin this party
I don't wanna rain on our whole parade
So all I can say is that I needed a change

I've been so down, I feel better with you
Just now, I've found an escape from the truth
I've been let down, my heart's battered and bruised
So is lying so bad if it helps me lie here with you?

All I can say is that I needed a change (a change)
All I can say is that I needed a change (a change)
All I can say is that I needed a change
I hope you understand that's all I can say
