White Lies
Well he fell for her faster than the darkness
Fell upon that mid-December sun
As they stumbled up the stairs to his apartment
Between the lustful kisses drenched in rum
Where they spent the night descending in desire
Oblivious of sorrow soon to come
Her touch spread through his bones just like wildfire
Poison words that made him sleep so sound and numb
In the morning he awoke and she was gone
Grey skies hanging over white lies she told
Your eyes never saw the truth about her
Well the dawn turned into day turned into night so long
As he waited for a visit or a call
Tracing every line to find the moment he went wrong
Now he wonders if she ever cared at all
Wonders, "was she ever there at all?"
Grey skies hanging over white lies she told
Your eyes never saw the truth about her
Well he fell for her faster than the darkness
Fell upon that mid December sun
Worst part is he ain't the only one
Grey skies hanging over white lies she told
Grey skies, white lies
My eyes never saw the truth about her
