Lyrics
I?ve been choosing to see only what I want
I framed this picture perfect - which I?ve placed my hopes upon
and through this mad charade - how was I to know
that I?d gone and tricked my mind into believing in my own joke
all my expectations are losing this war
and I?ve been set up for disaster
with my soured hopes of something more
Chorus
I?m lying to myself and I think that I might like it
my world looks so much better when I do
and I?m deceiving my heart hoping that you?ll tell me
you?ve gone and changed into someone new
but the truth remains you could never change
even if you wanted to
cuz I?m losing - losing my mind in my illusions
hoping you?d become the one that I dreamed of
has been a slow slow suicide and a sick and twisted love
but through this mad charade - how was I to know
that you?d never become my dream - not even close
all my expectations are losing this war
and I?ve been set up for disaster
with my soured hopes of something more
Chorus
Repeat Chorus
Lying baby - yeah ? better when I do
Foolish heart ? tell me - into someone new
truth remains ? never change
baby don?t you want to change for me?
no baby don?t you want to change for me?
