Beautiful Lies Lyrics - Beautiful Lies - Birdy

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 

The world's so fast and nothing lasts 

Let's save it while we can 

'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 

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 

I know too well that time will tell 

It's easy to forget 

'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 

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 

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
