Lyric

Look at me, I’m crying again tonight

While you’re already moving on with your life

I’m still holding onto ghosts we made

Stuck in that picture from June first days

You walked away before I could say goodbye

Like boarding flights before I reached the gate in time

And no matter how hard I act like I’m okay

My heart is frozen on that day

You found somebody just a week after me

His shadow looks a little too much like me

Maybe I was never really the only one

Maybe we were overlapping, coming undone

You’re such a gentle liar

Kiss me softly just to leave

Held my heart like it was precious

And passed it on in just a week

You’re such a gentle liar

God, you make betrayal sweet

While you’re making brand-new memories tonight

I’m still crying over everything you did to me

Even on your birthday when I made you smile

Was he already living quiet in your mind?

Dancing crazy like we do know the ball

Laughing through the smoke and city lights outside

Were you already slipping right through my hands?

Was I already filed away in your past plans?

These thoughts keep on running circles in my head

Like a sad song that never ends

Now every little thing reminds me of you

Songs in nowhere, perfume in crowded rooms

And I hate that I still miss the sound of your voice

After everything you put me through, I’ve got no choice

You’re such a gentle liar

Kiss me softly just to leave

Held my heart like it was precious

And passed it on in just a week

You’re such a gentle liar

God, you make betrayal sweet

While you’re making brand-new memories tonight

I’m still crying over everything you did to me

You’re probably out there, smiling somewhere now

Collecting moments that don’t include me now

I’m here replaying every tiny little thing

Like pain is my favorite movie scene

You’re such a beautiful liar

So soft with the way you leave

The cruelest kind of person in this world

Is the one who hurts you gently

You’re such a gentle liar

Why’d you love me just enough to leave?

You said forever so convincingly

Now forever is only memory

You’re such a gentle liar

And somehow you still taste sweet

While you’re making brand-new memories tonight

I’m still crying over you in these sheets
