Shallow Love

You smile at me, you kiss my lips

But I taste the ghost of her fingertips

You whisper sweet, pretend it's new

But I know she heard those same words too

You paint a dream, but it’s all fake

A play you’ve run, a move you make

You say I’m yours, your only one

But baby, you’ve used that line on tons

Your love’s a whisper in the wind

A velvet lie wrapped paper-thin

You build a world of smoke and flame

But I won't dance inside your game

You wear a mask, I know the truth

You fake forever, I see the proof

Your shallow love is not enough

I want the fire, not the bluff

You tried to pull me in your game

Whispered sweet lies, played the same

But I can see behind your eyes

Your shallow love is just disguise

You swear forever, then you dip

Addicted to the next quick hit

But I don’t buy your sugar coat

Your lies are leaking through your throat

Your love’s a whisper in the wind

A velvet lie wrapped paper-thin

You build a world of smoke and flame

But I won't dance inside your game

You wear a mask, I know the truth

You fake forever, I see the proof

Your shallow love is not enough

I want the fire, not the bluff

So keep your lines, your practiced charm

Your sugar words that lead to harm

I’m not the girl who’s gonna break

I’m walking out, for my own sake

I don’t need your shallow love

Your lips, your lies, I’ve had enough

You built your world on empty air

But I’ve got the truth, and you’ve got fear

You thought you’d win, but I broke free

Now I’m the one who finally sees

Your shallow love means nothing now

I rise alone, and I know how

Your shallow love can’t bury me

I’m stronger now, and finally free
