Mai

I see right through all the vanity
How can you see through the canopy
Girl I still love you but your smile damaging
Lies right through your teeth
You keep your image while you paint me weak
Well I'm tired of the portrait
I just wanted landscape
Our own little acre
Saved up on my paper
Stole it like a caper
Now you say get rid of my number do me a favor

Look I'll never call again unless you have a doubt
Figure it out
Cause I can love you through the famine and the drought
But if you need a rebound to truly show I'm the MVP
Don't look at me if I catch an alley oop and slam dunk with a Queen
But these feelings staying hooked
Yeah they loving my name
I wish our love could reignite like a phoenix out the grave
But look these nights in the PHX ain't really feel quite the same
I try pretending I'm happy but my smile looking lame

So I'm faded
Not by taking shots to the brain
Not by doping up and numbing out the beautiful pain
It tells a story so I let my hands write out the work
And let my breath speak a tale of this boy and his worth
How he let a fake love cut his hair while he sleep
Pushing daisies can make a broken heart look complete
Only seeing one side missing them while they're gone
But can I make you miss me just by simply writing a song

So what is love
I feel it from above but can I feel it from a heart
That never dragged me through the mud
I give up
But I know I need to keep it up
I've always had a disadvantage
I fall and then I get stuck
Feeling tough but I know I'm soft on the inside
I just want to feel your love on the inside
Remember when I saw a spark in your eye
Look I've felt this way for a long time

I see right through all the vanity
How can you see through the canopy
How can you say I'm not moving
And still feel like I'm the one losing
When I'm watching you slowly sink
You not what any of those dumb boys think
I really thought we would link but you broke it
You saw my heart and still broke it

I see right through all the vanity
How can you see through the canopy
Girl I still love you but your smile damaging
Lies right through your teeth
You keep your image while you paint me weak
Well I'm tired of the portrait
I just wanted landscape
Our own little acre
Saved up on my paper
Stole it like a caper
Now you say get rid of my number do me a favor

So what is love
I feel it from above but can I get it from a heart
That never dragged me through the mud
I give up
But I know I need to keep it up
I've always had a disadvantage
I fall and then I get stuck
Feeling tough but I know I'm soft on the inside
I just want to feel your love on the inside
Remember when I saw a spark in your eye
Look I've felt this way for a long time
