You could be a brilliant politician
You always say exactly what she needs to hear
And maybe you could win an Oscar
You’re so damn good at looking sincere

She still believes in you, but you’re not foolin’ me

The smiling promise is just your disguise I can smell the secrets and lies
Secrets and lies

What is it like to live in the shadows?
What do you do with all of the shame?
And how does it feel to be the winner
When nobody knows you’re playing a game?

Hush, hush, it’s such a rush to risk getting caught

The smiling promise is just your disguise
I can smell the secrets and lies (on your breath)
Secrets and lies

Don’t ya know that karma is real?
What you steal
Will be stolen from you

The smiling promise is just your disguise (You could be a brilliant politician)
I can smell the secrets and lies (How does it feel to be the winner?)
The smiling promise is just your disguise (You could be a brilliant politician)
I can smell the secrets and lies (How does it feel to be the winner?)
secrets and lies secrets and lies
