LYRICS:
PICTURE FRAMED LIES
So what am I doing wrong, that I’ve made such a mess
I thought following my heart, was the secret to success
But late at night I close my eyes and I pretend not to see
No matter what I do or get, I just can’t be happy
Have you seen it in my eyes
When I walk through the door
Something’s missing here that I’m still looking for
Have you heard it in my voice
When I whisper your name
Like a gentle breeze it’s here then gone again
SO WHAT are we doing wrong, that we feel so out of place
You’d think we had it all, judging by the smiles on our face
The pictures on the wall, tell stories of good times
But real life is lived between the lines
Yea real life, is lived outside
Those PICTURE FRAMED LIES
Have you felt it in my touch, when I caress your skin
Like the summer heat it’s here then gone again
It’s like something you can’t hold, when it’s not yours to keep
Try as you might, you still must set it free
SO WHAT are we doing wrong, that we feel so out of place
You’d think we had it all, judging by the smiles on our face
The pictures on the wall, tell stories of good times
But real life is lived between the lines
Yea real life, is lived outside
Those PICTURE FRAMED LIES
GOTTA LIVE your life outside, those picture framed lies
Gotta see straight through the lies...
