[Verse 1]
I already knew you’d find someone new
Some fool you’re trying to sell the truth to
That you and I are buried in the past
That you’re better off, and this love won’t last
You say you’re smiling with him by your side
But I see the doubt you’re trying to hide
Don’t act like I’m the one you had to lose
I’ve moved on clean—no time for your excuse
---
[Verse 2]
You post your smiles like they’re proof you’re healed
But I know the silence you never reveal
You laugh too loud, you drink too fast
Trying to outrun a love that lasts
You tell your friends you’re doing fine
But I see the cracks between each line
You’re chasing peace in someone new
But peace don’t come when it ain’t true
---
[Chorus]
Who do you think you’re gonna deceive?
You know I’m the part you still believe
You’re with him just to feel safe and warm
Not to face the fact you got it wrong
Tell him I was better, heart and soul
Tell him you’re not faithful, not in full
I’ll always fill that space you try to mask
While you pretend I’m gone—and drink from your flask
---
[Verse 3]
You crave the spark, but it’s gone cold
You feel the void that he can’t hold
You settle in a love that’s just a name
And deep down, you know it’s not the same
---
[Verse 4]
I gave you truth, you gave me doubt
Now you’re with him, just riding it out
You wear his ring, but not his name
You play the part, but feel the shame
I moved on clean, no looking back
You’re still pretending, keeping track
Of every time I cross your mind
But I’m not yours, not this time
---
[Chorus]
Who do you think you’re gonna deceive?
You know I’m the part you still believe
You’re with him just to feel safe and warm
Not to face the fact you got it wrong
Tell him I was better, heart and soul
Tell him you’re not faithful, not in full
I’ll always fill that space you try to mask
While you pretend I’m gone—and drink from your flask
---
[Bridge] (stripped down—just guitar and voice)
So sip your comfort, play your role
Hide the ache that eats your soul
I was the one you couldn’t replace
Now you wear regret like it’s laced in grace
---
[Closing Outro]
You fake the healing, play the part
But I still echo in your heart
You lost the one who saw you clear
Now all that’s left is what you fear
So keep your comfort, keep your lie
Keep chasing peace that won’t reply
I was the truth you couldn’t face
Now you’re alone in your own embrace
