Sugar Coated

I listen in Your voice doesn't waver As you tell me fables Like they're days gone by I'm drawn right in As you tell the story's That make me sorry I can't call them mine The tales that make me dream And sigh You can wrap it up With bows and strings Or dress it up in pretty things You can laugh it off or sing it sweet But the sugar coated truth The Sugar coated truth The sugar coated truth Is still a lie to me I could float away Like a handful of balloons When my heart is as light As a sunny afternoon And I'm an easy mark Cause I'm so naive I'll believe anything Thats paired with honest eyes Sink my teeth in chocolate covered lies You can wrap it up With bows and strings Or dress it up in pretty things You can laugh it off or sing it sweet But the sugar coated truth Is still a lie to me A poisoned apple Lying at my feet Looks exactly the same on the outside to me And I wouldn't know the difference Till it broke the heart That it intended to deceive from the very start You can wrap it up with with bows and strings Or dress it up in pretty things You can laugh it off or sing it sweet But the sugar coated truth Is still a lie to me
