lies through that smile

i'm signing my name, short and sweet

watching myself through a kaleidoscope

a man came my way, tall, dark and handsome

i don't want to mess this up

visited me on all my tours, my rooms

a night with him felt like a lifetime

he cradled all my secrets in those broad hands

if only i knew just how bad this was going to turn out

i would've left him in the drought

he was sweetness but i saw lies through that smile

he told me what i wanted to hear

made my friends turn against me

always got me in trouble,

those beautiful lies through that smile

surely made me feel like a child

i wanted to give him a surprise one night

i showed up on that corner, hoping i was at the right place

i went to that door, it was unlocked

walked in on some woman sucking his cock

he was sweetness but i saw lies through that smile

he told me what i wanted to hear

made my friends turn against me

always got me in trouble,

those beautiful lies through that smile

surely made me feel like a child

i never ran so fast, hoping he wouldn't catch up

tears rolling down my cheeks

my God how could i have been so stupid?

i didn't like where this was going

i hated all my emotions to be showing

he was sweetness but i saw lies through that smile

he told me what i wanted to hear

made my friends turn against me

always got me in trouble,

those beautiful lies through that smile

surely made me feel like a child
