Pretty Little Lie

Go and take yourself
Around
See what you catch
With that crown
Maybe find something
Something worth your time
Who can say their lines
And who plays kind

And it's so easy being free
Almost like turning a key

Tell yourself that pretty little lie
About not being ready this time
Be sure to rehearse each and every single line
After all, it's such a pretty little lie

Now wrap yourself
Up in those arms
Say a prayer
Silently
Try not to hold
Your breath
Or make a wish
With your heart

And it's so easy being seen
Than it is to break away clean

Tell yourself that pretty little lie
About not being ready this time
Be sure to rehearse each and every single line
After all, it's such a pretty little lie

And it's so easy playing a queen
Was this really your only dream

Tell yourself that pretty little lie
About not being ready this time
Be sure to rehearse each and every single line
After all it's you're time to shine
Tell yourself that pretty little lie
Rewriting history of your crimes
Make it better each and every single time
After all, it's such a pretty little lie
