Pretty Lies

You tell me pretty lies

thinking I won\'t notice

that the lies you fantasize

are without sincerity

 

You tell thunderous, deafening lies

hoping I won\'t realize

that all your beautiful promises 

are without intent

 

But I hear it in your voice,

I see it in your stance,

these lies materialize

so you can get another chance

 

I don\'t want to be just some other girl

who fell under you spell

I want it all

But I know you\'re running scared

 

I get lost in the labyrinth

of the feelings that you hide,

buried behind smoke and mirrors,

pinched smiles, and pretty lies.
