[Intro]
Hmm, hmm

[Verse 1]
I'm numb and I'm broken, my wounds are so close
And I'm trying to tie a knot where the bar is still open tonight, tonight
Put the cup to my lessons, I speak without thinking
And it'll all disappear if I just keep on drinking tonight, tonight

[Pre-Chorus]
Why am I dealing with our pain?
The past won't go away
But a truth'd make it all change?
No, no

[Chorus]
So pour me a lie tonight
I've been living it up, living it up
'Til it feels alright, make me feel alive
So pour me a lie tonight
I've been living it up, living it up
'Til I lose my mind, at least I might feel something else

[Verse 2]
Open my eyes and the sky is in mourning
A part of me died, but a new day is turning in light, in light
Confusion and heartache, I'm back where I started
I'm back at thе bar once so dearly departеd last night, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
Why am I dealing with our pain?
The past won't go away
But a truth'd make it all change?
No, no

[Chorus]
So pour me a lie tonight
I've been living it up, living it up
'Til it feels alright, make me feel alive
So pour me a lie tonight
I've been living it up, living it up
'Til I lose my mind, at least I might feel something else

Dua Lipa

Dua Lipa is a British singer-songwriter.

Born in London on August 22, 1995, she is the daughter of Albanian rock artist Dukagjin Lipa. She moved to Kosovo at the age of 11 before returning to the UK at age 15 to attend Sylvia Young Theatre School part-time. Posting covers of artists such as Nelly Furtado, Chance The Rapper and Rihanna, she signed to Warner Records (Vertigo/Captiol for Germany, Austria and Switzerland) and released her debut single, “New Love.” Its follow-up, “Be The One,” became her breakthrough single in mainland Europe. She was also shortlisted for the BBC Sound of 2016 list and was nominated for the prestigious BRITs Critics Choice Award.

In 2016, she broke through in the UK with “Hotter Than Hell,” and scored her first Billboard Hot 100-charting single with “Blow Your Mind (Mwah).” Collaborations with Martin Garrix and Sean Paul on their worldwide hits “Scared to Be Lonely” and “No Lie”“ followed in 2017. Her self-titled debut album was released on June 2, debuting at #5 on the UK Album Charts and at #86 on the Billboard 200 and receiving positive reviews from critics, many praising Dua Lipa’s vocals and confidence. The album’s sixth single, “New Rules,” became a worldwide hit, topping the charts in the UK and remaining in the top 5 for 10 consecutive weeks. In early 2018, “IDGAF” was released to similar success, while Dua won two BRIT Awards, including Best Breakthrough Act. She saw continued success with her Calvin Harris collaboration, “One Kiss,” and closed out the year with a Complete Edition reissue of her album.
