confidence trick

never meant to hurt you

i don't know why

you come with your

lawyers and your alibi

how can you look me straight in the eye

when you know

the clock on the wall

is singing our song

the love in my heart

is all dead and gone

you know why

you know why

there you go with

your confidence trick

i'm much too wise

you don't fool me a bit

feeling so low and looking so high

we both know that your truth is a lie

i never really knew you

all these years

you lied to my face while i undressed your fears

then you set me asail

on an ocean of tears

said goodbye

the clock on the wall is ticking real slow

there's nothing to say and there's nowhere to go

you know why

you know why

there. there you go with your confidence trick

i'm much too wise

you don't fool me a bit

no no

feeling so low and looking so high

we both know that your truth is a lie

it's a lie

lie

looking up

to the truth of what you are

blinding all colours and beauty

and the sparkle in your eye is blinding

the clock on the wall

is singing our song

the love in my heart

is all dead and gone

you know why

you know why

there. there you go with your confidence trick

i'm much too wise

you don't fool me a bit

feeling so low

and looking so high

we both know that your truth is a lie

it's a lie

lie

your truth is

your truth is a lie

and you never

stopped loving me

choaking back tears for you

so lovable

and we never go

and we never know

see i'm over

but i'm under

i don't ever wanna come down

to where you are!
