Once upon a time there was someone just like you, Who lived without a care in the world, Just a regular girl, With a secret no one knew: Or so the story goes You see the way her lips move Just trying to get in the groove You think you hear the truth but the lies keep creeping in
City lights illuminate Innocence but it's too late Cause I never wanted it to be this way Just know that I'll always be here no fear Let me make one thing clear
That's why you never see it coming, Cause I couldn't see the lies behind those eyes So baby take off your disguise and you'll see sunsets and starlit skies. That's why you never see it coming, Confusion boiling like the water that's been heated Just like my temper when I needed some clarification But I got it now.
I found these skeletons inside your closet Tell me my friend what you think I should do? I am almost 100 percent positive. That all these skeletons belong to you Tip top in the bottom bag Is where she keeps her favorite mag And I won't fall down in the murky mess of it all
City lights illuminate Innocence but it's too late Cause I never wanted it to be this way Just know that I'll always be here no fear Let me make one thing clear
That's why you never see it coming, Cause I couldn't see the lies behind those eyes So baby take off your disguise and you'll see sunsets and starlit skies. That's why you never see it coming, Confusion boiling like the water that's been heated Just like my temper when I needed some clarification But I got it now.
Take my hand I'll guide you there To a quiet place where no one stares, It's all you need To make your life complete Now that it's all said and done All I ask of you is be the one To never hide Who you are inside
City lights illuminate Innocence but it's too late Cause I never wanted it to be this way Just know that I'll always be here no fear Let me make one thing clear
That's why you never see it coming, Cause I couldn't see the lies behind those eyes So baby take off your disguise and you'll see sunsets and starlit skies. That's why you never see it coming, Confusion boiling like the water that's been heated Just like my temper when I needed some clarification But I got it now.
