[Verse 1] You keep your phone face down Like it owes you money You talk in half-truths, honey And I eat the smoke you blow Every time you vanish You come back acting normal But your eyes give you away Like a card trick gone cold [Pre-Chorus] I was patient too long I was blind in the glow Now the pieces line up And I hate what I know [Chorus] I’m done with your alibi Done with the sweet disguise You played me for a while Now I’m stepping out alive Your truth got teeth tonight Your lie can keep the bed I won’t be your backup plan I won’t be your second guess [Verse 2] There’s a name in your jacket And another in your jaw Every friend of a friend Saw you rewrite the law You call it complicated I call it plain betrayal You move through my trust like You’re stealing from a till [Pre-Chorus] I was patient too long I was blind in the glow Now the pieces line up And I hate what I know [Chorus] I’m done with your alibi Done with the sweet disguise You played me for a while Now I’m stepping out alive Your truth got teeth tonight Your lie can keep the bed I won’t be your backup plan I won’t be your second guess [Bridge] Keep the keys, keep the dress Keep the stories you rehearse I’m not begging for a version That leaves me feeling worse I saw the split in your smile And I let it speak for you Now the door stays open wide And I’m cutting clean through [Final Chorus] I’m done with your alibi Done with the sweet disguise You played me for a while Now I’m stepping out alive Your truth got teeth tonight Your lie can keep the bed I won’t be your backup plan I won’t be your second guess
