Lyrics
speak to me
tell me something so typical
a lullaby or something miserable
that will keep me up at night

cross out my eyes
i know you planned it
you know i love you
and i can't stand it
we just lost control
(we just lost control)

lie to me
give me something worth living for
tell me a reason worth fighting for
give me anything, anything to keep me breathing
lie to me
give me something worth living for
tell me a reason worth fighting for
give me anything, anything to keep me breathing

go lie to me
tell me stories so beautiful
an epic of something so terrible
that it makes me weep

cross out these days
on the calendar
it hurts me so much
and im not quite sure
i care anymore
(i care anymore)

lie to me
give me something worth living for
tell me a reason worth fighting for
give me anything, anything to keep me breathing
lie to me
give me something worth living for
tell me a reason worth dying for
give me anything, anything to keep me breathing
[x2]

anything to keep me breathing

I'm really curious as to what this song is about. I always listen to it when I'm really angry, so for me it has this desperation for goodness attached to it.

I think that perhaps it could be about wanting to be told that everything will be okay, even if it's not true. Lie to me // Give me something worth living for What do YOU think?

it sounds to me this song is about someone he loves "you know i love you, and i can't stand it" is making them slide off track for what they are truley striving for, and then he loses both, the one he loves and his goals.. which leaves him with nothing and he needs "anything to keep me breathing" which leads to the part that says "lie to me, tell me something worth living for" and he just wants something to yearn for again, whether its a lie or not, he wishes to have something fairly important in life.

You got the name wrong. It's "my stories, your alibis". If you think it doesn't make a difference then you weren't paying attention. Only one person is wrong here.

I love this song. I'm listening to it now, and it's the first time i've ever heard it and i fucking love it! I usually have to listen to a song a few times before i decide wether i like it or not, but not this one. "lie to me give me something worth living for tell me a reason worth fighting for give me anything, anything to keep me breathing" ♥
