Face Value Lyrics

Thought you were on my side

But I guess you lied

Lied to me

Must've been so easy

When you met that guy

Did you think about me

While he was inside?

Cause you think you know somebody till they show you who they are

And you thought you could've fixed your problems

Every time he slammed his desk

Or every time you were brushed aside

You thought that maybe you could make him kinder

But that's not who he is

You gotta take him at

You gotta take him at

Face value

Thought you were on my side

But my thoughts were wrong

Now that I'm on fire

Now you want my warmth

Every time I see you

It's so awkward

When you look right at me

I don't feel no love

Cause you think you know somebody till they show you who they are

And you thought you could've fixed your problems

Every time he slammed his desk

Or every time you were brushed aside

You thought that maybe you could make him kinder

But that's not who he is

You gotta take him at

You gotta take him at

Face value

Face value

What's that to me?

You don't even say hi or text back to me

Unless it's four in the morning and you need some extra loving or food

And you never really cared for me

I was in a box with you

And it felt like I couldn't escape

And as the time flew by that I spent with you

I realized that I made a mistake

I gotta take you at

Face value

I know that times are rough

I know that you're confused

Just give me a chance

I'll do what he can't

I'll do all I can

Cause you think you know somebody till they show you who they are

And you thought you could've fixed your problems

Every time he slammed his desk

Or every time you were brushed aside

You thought that maybe you could make him kinder

But that's not who he is

You gotta take him at

You gotta take him at

Face value

You gotta take him at

You gotta take him at

Cause you think you know somebody till they show you who they are

And you thought you could've fixed your problems

Every time he slammed his desk

Or every time you were brushed aside

You thought that maybe you could make him kinder

But that's not who he is

You gotta take him at

You gotta take him at

Face value

Face value

Face value

Face value

Face value
