Albatross — Wicked Little Smile

Wicked Little Smile! — Lyrics — You said… “Don’t tell her I told you.” You waited till we were alone To tell me what you’d heard. You watched my face so carefully, Then softened every word. You held my hand beneath the table While she walked through the door. I pulled away when she embraced me. You watched her eyes fall to the floor. You always knew where I would break. You learned it listening at night. Then used the things I told you To make your story sound I can’t trust anyone. I hear your voice in everyone. You strike the match to light the flame, Then whisper someone else’s name. You dance like fire around the truth, Burn every bond between us down, And stand above our ashes With a wicked little smile. You told her I was keeping secrets. You told me she had turned. We brought our anger to your doorstep. You listened, so concerned. Now no one sits beside her. Now no one calls my name. You ask us both to dinner— But never on the same day. I shouldn’t say this… I thought you knew… Who told you? Who told you? I heard you through the doorway. You laughed when someone asked. You said, “They still won’t speak.” Then laughed harder than the last. You wanted every empty chair. You wanted us alone. So every time we needed someone, We’d reach for your phone. YOU WATCHED IT ALL— AND SMILED! I can’t trust anyone. I hear your voice in everyone. You strike the match to light the flame, Then whisper someone else’s name. You dance like fire around the truth, Burn every bond between us down, And stand above our ashes With a wicked little smile. You lean a little closer… There’s something I should know. Don’t tell a soul. Check out my other songs on my channel! Like… Subscribe… thanks for listening!
