Lyrics
You knew the game, you played it well
You left me sleepin' in that dirty motel
Half way through Georgia, on highway nine
I didn't wake up til you crossed the state line
And you know, you gave me alibis
But I guess I didn't realize
Cuz I thought you should be idolized
Until I saw through your lipstick lies
You were the queen, I was the fool
You changed my life while you broke all my rules
Your long brown hair, it made me blind
I thought you loved me, but you cheated all the time
And you know, you gave me alibis
But I guess I didn't realize
Cuz I thought you should be idolized
Until I saw through your lipstick lies
It's over now, I guess I'll learn
And maybe next time I won't get so badly burned
I guess I'm never fully satisfied
I thought you'd be there until the day that I died
And you know, you gave me alibis
But I guess I didn't recognize them
Cuz I thought you should be idolized
Until I saw through your lipstick lies
Lipstick lies
