Verse1:
She's not what you think
Consoling smiles, mature advice
Will trick you
Her undying serenity makes you believe
Inside she thrives
Like she's been places, like she knows what
It means to be alive
And you bet she goes through lows but loves the driveChorus1:
But she knows nothing of the thrill
That sends shivers down your spine, that familiar chill
The addictive suffering of sensing something realThe safety net that keeps her tact will trick you
Trick youVerse2:
She's not what you'd like
Her holding grudges, switching minds
Will freak you
Her shielded raging storms won't let you find
Inside she dies
When every interaction leaves her lightless in the night
And she's been getting awfully tired to driveChorus2:
But you know nothing of the mess
The tangled circuit wires of her brain
Her lined up wrists, the shame of her pain
Yes you don't know cause she'd never tell
When once in all the years things seem actually well
Her mind will scream: you're still in hellThe net is closing around her throat but she still tricks you
Tricks youBridge:
Regretting staying in and missing out
Regretting every single sound
That leaves her lips, drowning in doubt
Praying to fit in, wishing she stood out
Regretting following the crowd
Pretending she likes having nobody aroundChorus 3
Cause she knows nothing of the thrill
That sends shivers down your spine, that familiar chill
The addictive suffering of sensing something realAnd those fucked in the head who choose to stay
What the hell is up with them?
They know better than to hope she'll ever change
And she'll ignore the thoughts that taunt her
Without her their lives would be better
Her dry eyes will smile like they're sayingThank you
I never meant to trick you
You must know that I had to
Trick you
