Lyrics:
My dad warned me to never date a man who
Plays guitar in a rock and roll band
Dark hair string scars on his hand
So I waited till the end of his show
To tell him “Hey I like your brown leather coat”
Pull the alarm, pull the alarm, someone pull it

It’s lies
Covered up with love
Covered up with “I'll see you again”
But you never did
Cuz you never made it
So if I'm the one that you
If i'm the one that you want
Tell me now
Cuz im so, I’m so tired of waiting

His car smelled of regret and menthol
Gladly sat back watching me as I fall
Deeper again, deeper again, deeper again
And he’ll never know what he meant to me
I stood with the crowd but I got in for free
The high life seemed so pretty
But running with the wolves caught up to me

It's lies
Covered up with love
Covered up with “I'll see you again”
But you never did
Cuz you never made it
So if I'm the one that you
If i'm the one that you want
Tell me now
Cuz I'm so, I’m so tired of waiting

Hey cool guy, tell me, whatcha doing now?
He told strangers “yeah my band is pretty underground”
And “You probably wouldn’t get the lyrics”
But I got them fine
You know you know that it’s not that deep
But he's a poser a Lou Reed wanna be
And I’m begging you begging please
Don't read your poetry to me
Please don't read your poetry to me

It’s lies
Covered up with pretty eyes and a
Crooked smile that makes you feel alright for
A minute or two or until the band is through
So if I'm the one that you
If I'm the one that you want
Tell me now
Cuz I'm so, I’m so tired of waiting
And you’re so damn good at faking
