Erotic Elk - My My Hey Hey

VERSE
Well, it is what it is
Go ahead and run to him
I’ll pretend you don’t exist tonight

And it is what it is
You broke my heart for the hundreth time
But I just don’t seem to have the sense to quit

CHORUS
How long will I hold on
To the very thing that cuts me to my soul?
And how long will I wait for your love
When everything tells me just let go?

VERSE
Well, it is what it is
I guess I was playing with fire
The moment that I let you strike the match

And it is what it is
I let you rip me open
And I gave you more than I should
But I don’t know if I would take it back now

CHORUS
How long will I hold on
To the very thing that cuts me to my soul?
And how long will I wait for your love
When everything tells me just let go?

It Is What It Is

Tell Me Beautiful Lies

VERSE
Lies
Tell me lies
Tell me he’s not 
Sleeping next to you tonight 

The truth
I don’t want the truth
Just let me believe
I’ve still got you

CHORUS
Tell me
Tell me beautiful lies

Dress all your deceits up
In a dazzling disguise

Sell me
On a beautiful lie

Whisper soft and sweetly
While I stare into your eyes

Tell me beautiful lies

VERSE
Pretend
Let’s play pretend
That I mean more to you
Than another friend

Illusion
A wonderful illusion
I’m only asking for 
A little comforting confusion
