The Goo Goo Dolls
Beautiful Lie
[Verse 1]
Wake up
We had the time of our lives
Lost the rest of our minds
And all your makeup
Faded down from your eyes
Now I could see what's behind

[Pre-Chorus]
Where did you go?
Where did you come from?
How could you be so cruel this time?
Where did you go?
Where did you come from?
How could you be such a beautiful lie?

[Chorus]
Don't know why I tried
'Cause now I'm done inside
Don't know what it's like
To live a life, a new one
And you're such a beautiful lie
You're such a beautiful lie
Another day, ashamed
Tired enough to do nothing
Erase, the stain
You left a trace in my life
And you're such a beautiful lie
You're such a beautiful lie
[Verse 2]
Break up
Before we're breaking down
Keep your feet on the ground
Something stays stuck
Makes no sense and no sound
Never said it out loud

[Pre-Chorus]
Where did you go?
Where did you come from?
How could you be so cruel this time?
Where did you go?
Where did you come from?
How could you be such a beautiful lie?

[Chorus]
Don't know why I tried
'Cause now I'm done inside
Don't know what it's like
To live a life, a new one
And you're such a beautiful lie
You're such a beautiful lie
Another day, ashamed
Tired enough to do nothing
Erase, the stain
You left a trace in my life
And you're such a beautiful lie
You're such a beautiful lie
[Instrumental Bridge]

[Outro]
Another day, ashamed
Tired enough to do nothing
Erase, the stain
You left a trace in my life
And you're such a beautiful lie
You're such a beautiful lie
