Beautiful Lies
Yung Bleu Lyrics

You had me at hello
I was instantly drawn to you when we first met

Can never make you happy
I believe that I will always fail to satisfy you

Girl, it must be the devil
Your demands are so unrealistic that it's as if the devil himself is behind them

Beautiful lies
Your falsehoods are so appealing that I can't help but want to believe them

Don't break my heart, tell me beautiful lies (beautiful)
I don't want to hear the harsh truth, just tell me what I want to hear

She's an emotional wreck right now
She is in a highly unstable emotional state at the moment

She's got some things on her chest right now
She is burdened by some unresolved issues at the moment

I bet she lookin' at my text right now
I'm fairly certain that she is currently reading my text messages

So hit me back, don't do me bad like that
Please reply to me, don't treat me poorly by ignoring me

Can't take you back, left you in the past like that
I can't forgive you and move on, I have left you in the past

I'm the reason why you been in your bag like that
I am the cause of your recent emotional problems

Don't get this shit confused
Don't misunderstand me

You lied to me, I won't believe you again (you lied)
You have deceived me in the past, I won't trust you again

But fuck that shit, you'll never see me again
I'm done with you, we won't cross paths again

Came in my life and now you leavin' again
You entered my life and now you're leaving once more

Beautiful lies
Your deceptions are so alluring that I can't resist them

What can I say to you?
What words can I use to communicate with you effectively?

Hopefully nothin' I can't take back
I want to speak carefully and avoid saying anything hurtful or regrettable

We're gettin' further from the right track
Our relationship is headed in the wrong direction

And I'm in this place with you, woah
I'm emotionally invested in this relationship with you

Oh, every day it's like you on attack
You seem to be constantly picking fights with me

And we can't keep gettin' down like that (oh)
We can't keep repeating the same patterns of conflict and disappointment

'Cause we be fallin' out, you keep fuckin' up
Our relationship is suffering because of your repeated mistakes and missteps

You apologize and I suck it up
You say sorry but I am the one who has to forgive and move on

I just stick around, try to toughen up
I stay in this relationship and try to develop emotional resilience to cope with the hardships

Is the love enough? You tellin' me
Is our love strong enough to withstand these challenges? I need your opinion on this

Don't you break my heart, tell me beautiful lies
I'm pleading with you to avoid hurting me by telling me falsehoods instead

Hmm, I want to believe you when you say
I have a strong desire to trust you when you make promises

That you always loved me that way
You claim that your love for me has always been genuine and consistent

Don't wanna see you but I need your love
I have mixed feelings about you, I both want to avoid you and crave your affection at the same time

Had to ice you out 'cause they be sleep on us
I had to distance myself from you because others were not recognizing the potential in our relationship

Lickin' on that thing, you fell deep in love
You became infatuated with me after becoming intimate with me

Baby, come and tell me what you need from love
I'm open to listening to your needs and wants regarding love and relationships

I'll be here, yeah
I'm willing to stick around and see where this relationship goes

Beautiful lies (lies)
I know they're lies, but they're so beautifully crafted that I still want to believe them

(Beautiful lies, hmm)
These lies are so expertly woven that they feel almost poetic in nature
