Verse 1 I used to chase the sweetest sound, A whisper when no one was around. “You can be more, you can be free, Just put your little trust in me.” I thought those words were meant to heal, I thought the promise must be real. But every sugar-coated lie Can hide a thorn you won't see in time. Pre-Chorus So if someone tells you what you wanna hear, And makes your every doubt disappear, Look a little closer before you believe— Some hands hold roses with thorns underneath. Chorus Don't fall in sweets, Don't drown in honeyed words. A beautiful promise Can be the sharpest sword. If someone whispers, “You're everything to me,” Remember my story— And choose carefully. Don't fall in sweets, No matter how good they taste. Some of the sweetest voices Will lead you far away. You don't owe your heart To anyone who says they'll set you free. Just trust your own paws. Don't fall in sweets. Verse 2 I know what it's like to feel alone, To wish somebody would call you home. When you've been hurt and pushed aside, Even a lie can feel like a guiding light. I won't tell you that I never knew. I won't pretend I wasn't fooled. I wanted love, I wanted a place— And I paid the price for believing too late. Pre-Chorus So when you're standing at the edge of the night, And someone's offering you a shining light, Ask what they want before you take their hand. Not every promise means what you think it does. Chorus Don't fall in sweets, Don't drown in honeyed words. A beautiful promise Can be the sharpest sword. If someone whispers, “You're everything to me,” Remember my story— And choose carefully. Don't fall in sweets, No matter how good they taste. Some of the sweetest voices Will lead you far away. You don't owe your heart To anyone who says they'll set you free. Bridge I lost the ones I loved, I watched my whole world change. And there were days I wished I could erase my name. But if my scars can teach you, Then let them speak tonight: You don't need someone's promise To prove you're worth the light. Soft Break So listen, little one, When the night is cold and long… If someone makes you feel Like you finally belong— Don't run to them too fast. Take one breath. Look twice. Final Chorus Don't fall in sweets, Don't let the sugar blind your eyes. Not every gentle whisper Is telling you the truth inside. You can find your way Without somebody else's vow. I learned it far too late, But maybe you can learn it now. Don't fall in sweets. When the sweetest words arrive, Keep your heart, keep your claws, And keep your own life. Because promises can glitter, And lies can sound so sweet… Don't fall in sweets.
