Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You paint a picture of paradise
The colors shine and sparkle
You say you want me but don't think twice
You're caught in a vicious circle
[Verse 2]
While I was wishing for what could have been
I was blind and taken in
You build the world by promising
With empty words
[Verse 3]
Wrapped in glitter and gold
Were the lies you told me that won't go away
Don't try to pretend
We can turn around and start it all again
Glitter and gold
There's no happy ending
'Cause this is goodbye
The truth is too late
Only takes so much before my heart will break
And now it's too late
[Verse 4]
It's funny how the sweetest lies
Pass through your lips like candy
Another trick, a new disguise
Another tale to tell me
I've heard all the stories that you use
All the lines and broken truths
You make a fool believing you
With empty words
[Verse 5]
Wrapped in glitter and gold
Were the lies you told me that won't go away
Don't try to pretend
We can turn around and start it all again
Glitter and gold
There's no happy ending
'Cause this is goodbye
The truth is too late
Only takes so much before my heart will break
And now it's too late
[Verse 6]
It's too late
And now it's too late
Hmm, it's too late
Glitter and gold
[Verse 7]
Glitter and gold
There's no happy ending
'Cause this is goodbye
The truth is too late
Only takes so much before my heart will break
[Verse 8]
Wrapped in glitter and gold
Were the lies you told me that won't go away
Don't try to pretend
We can turn around and start it all again
Glitter and gold
There's no happy ending
'Cause this is goodbye
The truth is too late
Only takes so much before my heart will break
And now it's too late
