Locket of Lies

Lyrics

Verse 1
I found it in your drawer
Silver heart, cheap chain
Openin' it slowly
I knew I'd feel the pain

Your picture tucked inside
But the date was wrong
You wore your sweetest smile
While you sang that same old song

Pre-Chorus
I read the little note
And my hands went cold
You swore that love was true
But the truth was old

Chorus
Locket of lies
Locket of lies
You kept my name in there
And told me goodbye
Locket of lies
Locket of lies
That little silver heart
Told me why

Verse 2
You said you loved me clean
Like Sunday morning rain
But the chains you kept around your neck
Were made of other names

I could've let it go
If you would've let me see
But you hid it in that locket
Like a match in dry debris

Pre-Chorus
Now every little shine
Looks a little worn
I held your truth too long
Now the trust is torn

Chorus
Locket of lies
Locket of lies
You kept my name in there
And told me goodbye
Locket of lies
Locket of lies
That little silver heart
Told me why

Bridge
I don't need your sorry
I don't need your ring
I learned what love can do
When it won't say a thing

Chorus
Locket of lies
Locket of lies
You kept my name in there
And told me goodbye
Locket of lies
Locket of lies
That little silver heart
Told me why

Outro
That little silver heart
Told me why
