Rhinestone

I’m sick of running myself in the ground

I need to try to find my way out

But all of the lights

Bright as they are lead back to you

How could I bring myself to be used?

I should have learned from the things that

I told myself I’d never do

All along the liar was you

Show your true colors let them see

On the surface you shine

Like the diamond pressed to your cheek

But beneath your tricks

You’re just another weakling after me

Like a rhinestone you shine

But your beauty remains skin deep

And I know just what you are

You’re a liar, a fake, a cheat

And I tried not to forget this

But I choke on the words that spill from my throat

And spit back in your face

The life I’ve wasted on you

They may follow you in blindness

Oh, how I’d love to watch your insides curl

At the thought of being alone

On the surface you shine

Like the diamond pressed to your cheek

But beneath your tricks

You’re just another weakling after me

Like a rhinestone you shine

But your beauty remains skin deep

And I know just what you are

You’re a liar, a fake, a cheat

When they see you for what you are

I’ll light the spark that will burn

This place to the ground

On the surface you shine

Like the diamond pressed to your cheek

But beneath your tricks

You’re just another weakling after me

Like a rhinestone you shine

But your beauty remains skin deep

And I know just what you are

You’re a liar, a fake, a cheat

Like the diamond pressed to your cheek

But beneath your tricks

You’re just another weakling after me
