Birdy Beautiful Lies Lyrics

[Verse 1] Beautiful lies Cover my eyes with your hands Just pretend we're better Turn out the light There are no more surprises to come Let's be numb together

[Pre-Chorus] The world's so fast and nothing lasts Let's save it while we can

[Chorus] Cause I want to be forever Like smoke in the air Float like a feather going nowhere Lost in the silence I don't need to be free Kill me with kindness And please

[Verse 2] Tell me beautiful lies I wish that I had the strength to let go, but I don't I'm paralyzed I see the child in your eyes and I'm stuck in the headlights

[Pre-Chorus] I know too well that time will tell It's easy to forget

[Chorus] Cause I want to be forever Like smoke in the air Float like a feather going nowhere Lost in the silence I don't need to be free Kill me with kindness And please

[Bridge] Oh, well, I've tried to be open But I've found it's hard when you're broken And in the heat of the moment, we're free So please, please Please

[Outro] Tell me beautiful lies Cover my eyes with your hands Just pretend we're better Turn out the light There are no more surprises to come Let's be numb together
