The Perfect Lie Lyrics

You wore your love like a crown of glass

Fragile and gleaming it drew me in fast

Your words so sweet they tasted divine

But they cut through my heart like a bitter wine

I built my world on the ground you tread

Every smile a lifeline every tear I bled

But I see it now the cracks in the seams

What felt like forever was just a cruel dream

How could you weave such a flawless lie

While I gave you my all while I lived to try?

You held me close but your touch was cold

A love so lifeless so heartless so controlled

I'm drowning in memories each one a blade

Carving the truth from the mess you made

Hollow promise your masterpiece

You left me broken begging for peace

I asked myself how I missed the signs

The games you played the rehearsed lines

You smiled like an angel you laughed like a friend

But you were a storm that would never end

I searched your eyes for a spark a flame

But found no soul behind your name

You were a void a shadow's deceit

A beautiful mask hiding defeat

How could you weave such a flawless lie

While I gave you my all while I lived to try?

You held me close but your touch was cold

A love so lifeless so heartless so controlled

I'm drowning in memories each one a blade

Carving the truth from the mess you made

Hollow promise your masterpiece

You left me broken begging for peace

I gave you my trust you stole my voice

You turned my devotion into your choice

What kind of heart takes pleasure in pain

Leaves behind nothing but a burning stain?

I can't unsee who you truly are

A distant void a fading star

You'll never know the weight you've thrown

Because love means nothing to a heart of stone

How could you weave such a flawless lie

While I gave you my all while I lived to try?

You held me close but your touch was cold

A love so lifeless so heartless so controlled

I'm drowning in memories each one a blade

Carving the truth from the mess you made

Hollow promise your masterpiece

You left me broken begging for peace

But I'll find strength in the pain you left

A heart rebuilt from what you bereft

Though your empty words still haunt my nights

I'll rise again to reclaim my light

Hollow promise your greatest lie

I'll carry the scars but I'll learn to fly
