[Verse 1]
You held my coat in the rain
Said, “baby, I’ll carry the weight”
You fixed the chair by the sink
Made me believe you would stay
You knew the words to my scars
Knew just how soft I could bend
You smiled like a safe little home
Then you slipped in the end
[Pre-Chorus]
You were sugar on my tongue
Salt in the cut
You made me feel like the one
Then you turned me to dust
[Chorus]
Sweet, sweet liar
(oh, sweet, sweet liar)
You kiss, then you wire
(oh, sweet, sweet liar)
You hold me so kind
Then you cross that line
Sweet, sweet liar
I loved you blind
[Verse 2]
Saw your name on his screen
Late when you said you were tired
Same old shirt, same old lie
Same smile, same fire
You brought me flowers, then smoke
You brought me plans, then a mess
You said “I’m yours, I’m yours”
While you were loving the rest
[Pre-Chorus]
You were sugar on my tongue
Salt in the cut
You made me feel like the one
Then you turned me to dust
[Chorus]
Sweet, sweet liar
(oh, sweet, sweet liar)
You kiss, then you wire
(oh, sweet, sweet liar)
You hold me so kind
Then you cross that line
Sweet, sweet liar
I loved you blind
[Bridge]
I know your type
Soft hands, sharp teeth
You build me up
Just to leave me needing
You can’t keep me
On that hook anymore
I see the shine
I see the dirt on your floor
[Final Chorus]
Sweet, sweet liar
(oh, sweet, sweet liar)
You kiss, then you wire
(oh, sweet, sweet liar)
You hold me so kind
Then you cross that line
Sweet, sweet liar
I loved you blind
