Emery - The Smile, the Face Lyrics

I was never going to fall
But the smile, the face has sealed my fate
So sweet, an addict of it all
I was blind for another taste

The world has turned black and cold
And I can't catch my breath
You rehearsed your lines with rhythmic details
They match the pounding in my chest

Then summer came and you left me with your words
The clever sounds from your mouth
They can make me feel so worthless
And you say that I am not enough
And though my heart is breaking open
Know that I will not be broken

The person you claimed to be is not who haunts me now
The careless lies behind those brown eyes
That you swore were true more times than I can count

Then summer came and you left me with your words
The clever sounds from your mouth
They can make me feel so worthless
And you say that I am not enough
And though my heart is breaking open
Know that I will not be broken

I know these words are weak and young
But spoken as I come undone
And while I drown in these mistakes
Your ego swells but I can tell
You know that you're a fake

(You cried in front of your friends)
Just to save some face
(You didn't want it to end)
In just a week I'm replaced
(You wanted me so listen, listen to me)
But can you hear me now
(You're just a sickness and a cancer)
The cancer is your filthy mouth
