Artifice
Today was the greatest
Now it's dead and gone
You weren't there
You didn't seem to care
I stayed around
When my head told me to go
But my heart
My heart it told me no
(chorus)
I saw you the next day
You said it was all bad
I said I was sorry
You said you were mad
You turned around
Didn't stop to say goodbye
And there behind you
I laid down and died
How do you do it
How do you make it so
How do you make me stay
When I know that I should go
Why do you do that
Make it seem untrue
When I can see you
I can see you
(chorus)
I know better
I can see through you
I know better
I know you won't be true
I know better now
I know what I must do
You won't be here for me
And I won't stay here with you
(chorus)
I saw you the next day
You said you're feeling bad
You said you were sorry
You hoped I wasn't mad
Well I turned around
Didn't stop to say goodbye
And there behind me
I left you with your lies
