[Chorus: Delaney]
Stop the lyin', babe
I know your guilty face
Just tell me where you've been
Quit the partyin'
Can't blame the drink again
Just tell me what you did

[Verse 1: Abstract]
Sold out Munich night I realized you ain't bein' faithful
That's my job, the shit I do to put food on our table
On the road a couple months, stayin' true was never tough
Shoulda kicked you out the first time but I just care too much
I believe the heart inside of me is universal
I found out that kind of thinking's more than controversial
Went to war for you, the heart you gave me back was painted purple
Wounded, fighting for somebody too quick to desert you
In your line of service, I thought I deserved it
I spent months yellin' at myself like I'm the culprit
Like I'm the reason, I'm the fuck-up in this mess of pages
Then I realized you wrote the book on manipulation
I sat on a plane for sixteen hours in my head
All scenarios had someone else inside our bed
You know what it's like to have your deepest fears invade your space?
Locked inside a business class where I don't have an inch to pace?
Couldn't even sleep; anxiety took all my breath
Thinkin' if this plane goes down, at least I'll get some rest

[Bridge: Abstract]
Six miles up, six scenarios in my head, six shows overseas and the devil had struck again
She ever live around in my car? Three tours. Never even thought about cheating. Take everything into our house. Keep it in her pants for a week and a half
Six miles up, six scenarios in my head, six shows overseas and the devil had struck again

[Chorus: Delaney]
Stop the lyin', babe
I know your guilty face
Just tell me where you've been
Quit the partyin'
Can't blame the drink again
Just tell me what you did

[Verse 2: Abstract]
Six months back and I'm smokin' a lot more than I should
Hidin' from the world in my work, hopin' to stay for good
People fallin' off every minute, thinkin' I could be next
If I don't execute what I'm workin' on then I'm gettin' left
Little did I know you were thinkin' of leavin' too
'Cause Abstract was becoming more me than I was Luke
Nights you slept alone I was busy tryin' to prove
That I was worthy of the life that I dreamed about in the booth
I was building longevity, something for our children
But you're impulsive and far-removed from having a vision
Switchin' jobs the second any part wasn't fittin'
I was questionin' your will, it was makin' me distant
Thought you were stronger; you cracked under the stress
When it came to growin' up, you were quickly over the fence
Runnin' back to places you said that you never would
You believe in karma, hope it serves you everything it should

[Chorus: Delaney]
Stop the lyin', babe
I know your guilty face
Just tell me where you've been
Quit the partyin'
Can't blame the drink again
Just tell me what you did

[Outro: Delaney]
Pretty bare face, baby
Look what you've become
I don't think your sweet sorrys will
Fix the damage done
Pretty bare face, baby
Look what you've become
I don't think your sweet sorrys will
Fix the damage done

Abstract

Growing up in New Jersey, Luke Terkovich, otherwise known as Abstract, was involved with music at an early age. Learning how to play piano, electric guitar, and the drums were Luke’s first involvement with music — and he did it all before 6th grade. With a move across country from New Jersey to Jackson, Wyoming, the distance between learning and playing new instruments got larger. It wasn’t until several years later that Luke began to mess around with freestyling during his high school years spent at Jackson Hole High. Evolving his newly found musical expression into Raised in Jackson, WY, Abstract is known for his immense musical versatility and affinity for providing uplifting music for a turbulent world. With a knack for storytelling, he provides introspective motivation to all who take the time to dive into his work. Notably known for his remix of Ruth Bs Lost Boy “Neverland” which has garnered hundreds of millions of plays on YouTube, his work with Drumma Battalion and Roze, and his 2016 album Something to Write Home About. He heads a collective known as “A Team Worldwide” 5 musicians from 4 different countries. Producers Drumma Battalion of Norway, Blulake of Sweden, Cryo Music of Scotland, and Abstract. Coming off his first overseas tour with YONAS, the ATWW collective is gearing up to drop Abstracts new album/experience late summer 2018.writing detailed lyrics, he began to find that he could vent the stresses of his everyday life through creating music. Slowly progressing through the years of his new town where he calls home; balancing school, life, and music developed Luke to become Abstract.

Trying to find his sound was a young teenager who just looked to get something written down and then translated into music, and eventually rap. Still in his caterpillar stage of metamorphosis was a young Abstract who released his first ever collection of songs, properly named The Dream.

In 2012, through YouTube, Abstract met Craig McAllister, a producer from Glasgow, Scotland. During that period, Abstract was in the midst of working on On My Own Time and was the first time Craig showed up with Abstract. Afterwards, the duo started to mesh extremely well and produced the five projects, Under Lights & Microscopes, A Life To Live By, Dreaming With Eyes Open, The Science Of Feeling Tall, and We Are The Artist.
