I just saw you the other night
I could see... you were done up in disguise
a painted smile across your face
in a red dress and showing off your legs
but I know all about your schemes
I know who and how you've been impressing
Every new arm that you hold
only hides what your pills can't control
You're disgusting but I adore you
you're a liar but I admire you
cloudy eyes but still beautiful
Have you seen me across the street?
would you want to come look more closely?
a painted smile over my mask
with colorful memories from years passed
have I ever caught your eye,
in a panic, reciting my white lies
In every new bed that you sleep
is another bottle poured into me
You're deceiving but I just need you
you're an addict but I must have you
almost gone but still just enough
I'm alone and you're a mess
beneath the grime, I see your loveliness
I'm alone and you're a mess
against my skin, can you feel my cowardice?
I'm on my own and you're such a mess
within your soul I could hide my loneliness
If it's our words that are failing
then our movements could save us
when it's our hearts that are fleeting
the snow will control our demons
