Skinny Lies

You're chasing shadows in the sky with all the vampires
Biting into all the stars still left alive
Lips of velvet but your tongue is like a chainsaw

What is left to say
That I haven't said?

If I'm not what you need, then I don't wanna know
But the words in your mouth cut right to the bone
I wanna go back to what it was before
Just you and I and skinny lies

Do you really wanna get what you wish for?
Did you forget that we're all human after all
Don't look at me and lick your teeth like I'm your savior
Baby, just bite down

If I'm not what you need, then I don't wanna know
But the words in your mouth cut right to the bone
I wanna go back to what it was before
Just you and I and skinny lies

It's like you never knew me
Or maybe I don't know myself
And when you look right through me
All you'll find are skinny lies

Look at what we've done
Threw our secrets out into the Sun
There ain't no time
Just you and I and skinny lies

If I'm not what you need, then I don't wanna know
But the words in your mouth cut right to the bone
I wanna go back to what it was before
Just you and I and skinny lies

If I'm not what you need, then I don't wanna know
But the words in your mouth cut right to the bone
I wanna go back to what it was before
Just you and I and skinny lies

It's like you never knew me
Or maybe I don't know myself
And when you look right through me
All you'll find are skinny lies
