Clever Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm not you
I could never throw life
Straight into
Your innocent eyes

[Pre-Chorus]
But you told me, told me
Told me we were forever
And you sold me, sold me
Sold me, oh, ain't you clever

[Chorus]
Take your time
I don't need anymore, I'm fine
Look close, you'll find
That it's not quite as lonely
And you're not the only one lying

[Post-Chorus]
And you're not the only one lying
That it's not quite as lonely
And you're not the only one lying

[Verse 2]
I thank you
For looking through your false eyes
So untrue
With your terrible lies
[Pre-Chorus]
But you told me, told me
Told me we were forever
And you sold me, sold me
Sold me, oh, ain't you clever

[Chorus]
Take your time
I don't need anymore, I'm fine
Look close, you'll find
That it's not quite as lonely
And you're not the only one lying

[Post-Chorus]
And you're not the only one lying
That it's not quite as lonely
And you're not the only one lying

[Outro]
And you're not the only one lying
I thank you
For looking through your false eyes
So untrue
With your terrible lies

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
