I’m free falling
I'm falling from the high
No longer intoxicated
By the look in your eye
I see clearly now
You’re not who I thought
You can stop the act now
Youve been caught
Time to reveal
The monster underneath
You tricked your way in
You lied through your teeth
Scared of falling
But you pulled me down
You promised I’d be your queen
But where’s my crown
All the bittersweet whispers
All the nights spent wasted
you’re not who you pretended
It's time to face it
