I COULD HAVE LIED
Michael Balzary/Anthony Kiedis/John [bad word] Chad Smith

There must be something
In the way I feel
That she don't want me to feel
The stare she bares cut me
I don't care
You see so what if I bleed

I could never change
Just what I feel
My face will never show
What is not real

mountain never seems to have
The need to speak
look that shares so many seek
The sweetest feeling
I got from you
The things I said to you were [bad word] 
I could never change
Just what I feel
My face will never show
What is not real

I could have lied I'm such a fool
My eyes could never never never
Keep their cool
Showed her and I told her how
She [bad word] me but I'm [bad word] up now

But now she's gone yes she's gone away
soulful song
That would not stay
You see she hides 'cause she is scared
But I don't care
I won't be spared

I could have lied I'm such a fool
My eyes could never never never
Keep their cool
Showed her and I told her how
She [bad word] me but I'm [bad word] up now

I could have lied I'm such a fool
My eyes could never never never
Keep their cool
Showed her and I told her how
She [bad word] me but I'm [bad word] up now
