5 Seconds Of Summer - Lie To Me

I saw you looking brand new overnight
I caught you looking too, but you didn't look twice
You look happy, oh
You look happy, oh

Flashing back to New York City
Change your flight so you stay with me
Remember thinking that I got this right

And now I wish we never met
'Cause you're too hard to forget
While I'm cleaning up your mess
I know he's taking off your dress
And I know that you don't
But if I ask you if you love me
I hope you li-li-li-lie
Lie to me

It's 3 AM and the moonlight's testing me
If I can make it till dawn then it won't be hard to see
I ain't happy, oh
I ain't too happy, oh

Flashing back to New York City
Change your flight so you stay with me
Problem was I thought I had this right

Now I wish we never met
'Cause you're too hard to forget
While I'm cleaning up your mess
Know he's taking off your dress
I know that you don't
But if I ask you if you love me
I hope you li-li-li-lie
Lie to me

Singing li-li-li-lie, li-li-li-li-li-lie
Li-li-li-li-li-lie, li-li-li-li-li-lie

And I know that you don't
But if I ask you if you love me
I hope you li-li-li-lie
Lie to me

Drummer Ashton Irwin explained that this song is about how "it hurts when you're in a romantic situation and the other person is in it for reasons that you aren't".

The remixed version of this track features Julia Michaels which expresses the female point of view on a broken relationship.

This song's music video was filmed at the Irwindale Speedway in Los Angeles. Said Ashton Irwin, "The 'Lie To Me' video represents to me when someone closest to you is in a toxic situation, and they take an emotional beating over and over. With no attempt to escape. It's absolutely heartbreaking."
