Lyrics

Well you play your part so easily
You fooled yourself again.
With your lipstick smeared across some face
You'll never see again.
And I sat there in the corner
Working back my memories
And I wondered if the time would come
You'd get around to me.

Living the sweetest lie.
Living the sweetest lie.

Well you made me feel electric
Every moment that we shared
But the lights went out when I realized
You never even cared.
So I picked myself back up
I didn't know where I had been.
And the thing that makes you seem so wrong
Is I want you back again.

Living the sweetest lie
Yeah c'mon baby give me love
Living the sweetest lie
Yeah c'mon baby give me love

You know you'll never be taken
Your love will never be taken, no
And are you tired of waking
Are you tired of waking alone?
