[Verse]
Whispers in the shadows a smile so fake
They laugh in your face but it's all a mistake
Promises crumble like dust in the wind
Tell me how do these pretending games begin
[Chorus]
Who can we trust when the lights go down
All these faces wear a hidden crown
Behind closed doors their true colors gleam
This world ain't as perfect as it might seem
[Verse 2]
Armored in words that were never real
Daggers behind their backs conceal
Eyes that sparkle lies sharp as knives
Cutting through the truth of our lives
[Chorus]
Who can we trust when the lights go down
All these faces wear a hidden crown
Behind closed doors their true colors gleam
This world ain't as perfect as it might seem
[Bridge]
Tell me why do they play this charade
In this hostile masquerade
Every hello’s got a bitter goodbye
Trust is breaking I can't deny
[Chorus]
Who can we trust when the lights go down
All these faces wear a hidden crown
Behind closed doors their true colors gleam
This world ain't as perfect as it might seem
