[Verse 1]
Burn like a cigarette
Hole inside my head
Reminding me not to forget
Words, words I'd never say
Things along the way
Like telling me that I'm the best
[Pre-Chorus]
Look at your face, it doesn't look like it did
You give away everything now that you've hid
[Chorus]
You, you wanted me only
To never get lonely
So you opened up your arms and took me in
And this our last goodbye
And this is a perfect lie
Told by someone that I used to know back then
[Verse 2]
Help, help is on the way
That's what they all say
But the thing that they don't know
Is I, I know everything
And maybe it's just a ring
But that won't make me let it go
[Pre-Chorus]
Look at your face, it doesn't look like it did
You give away everything now that you've hid
[Chorus]
You, you wanted me only
To never be lonely
So you opened up your arms and let me in
And this our last goodbye
And this is a perfect lie
Told by someone that I used to know back then
[Pre-Chorus]
Look at your face, it doesn't look like it did
You hide the love that you're not willing now to give
Willing now to give
[Chorus]
You, you wanted me only
To never be lonely
So you opened up your arms and let me in
And this our last goodbye
And this is a perfect lie
Told by someone that I used to know back then
[Outro]
Ooh
And this is our last goodbye
And this is the final lie
That I never have to hear that voice again
Burn like a cigarette
Hole inside my head
Reminding me not to forget
Words, words I'd never say
Things along the way
Like telling me that I'm the best
[Pre-Chorus]
Look at your face, it doesn't look like it did
You give away everything now that you've hid
[Chorus]
You, you wanted me only
To never get lonely
So you opened up your arms and took me in
And this our last goodbye
And this is a perfect lie
Told by someone that I used to know back then
[Verse 2]
Help, help is on the way
That's what they all say
But the thing that they don't know
Is I, I know everything
And maybe it's just a ring
But that won't make me let it go
[Pre-Chorus]
Look at your face, it doesn't look like it did
You give away everything now that you've hid
[Chorus]
You, you wanted me only
To never be lonely
So you opened up your arms and let me in
And this our last goodbye
And this is a perfect lie
Told by someone that I used to know back then
[Pre-Chorus]
Look at your face, it doesn't look like it did
You hide the love that you're not willing now to give
Willing now to give
[Chorus]
You, you wanted me only
To never be lonely
So you opened up your arms and let me in
And this our last goodbye
And this is a perfect lie

Ooh
And this is our last goodbye
And this is the final lie
That I never have to hear that voice again
