You should get your story straight before I start to doubt it Cuz if you've worn your lipstick off, I want to hear about it And telling me would be such a breeze, tell me if you want to leave I think I'm getting the drift You want some time with your friends...

Watching everybody leaving, I tell myself, "Looks can be deceiving." Oh, I'm hoping that I'm not dead right This after hours, afterlife I'm not ready to die in style tonight. Tried to follow you out, But I did not know where you'd be leading on, And you might...
