Softspoken Sleight Of Hand
[Verse 1]
If I start this story from the top
You won't hear any true thought
I'm not the biggest liar, but I hide a lot
My greatest target for this plot was self-taught
[Pre-Chorus 1]
You want to see the real me
As I hide my true face
Provoking thoughts to turn the page, but
[Chorus]
If I start this story from the top
You might call my bluff
And my heart couldn't take that
If my sleight of hand caught your eye
Not another word would reside
[Verse 2]
Don't judge a cover by its book
I tried to be fake but my heart couldn't take that
Don't judge a cover by its book
I tried to be fake but my heart couldn't take that
[Pre-Chorus 2]
You want to learn a lot of things
At a very fast pace
Provoking thoughts to turn the page, but
[Chorus]
If I start this story from the top
You might call my bluff
And my heart couldn't take that
If my sleight of hand caught your eye
Not another word would reside
[Bridge]
I'm writing in the back because I'm careless
I put my heart in a cage when I get scared
I'm starting at the end ‘cause I'm embarrassed
Each page you turn could be your very own demise
But my heart couldn't take that
[Outro Chorus]
If I start this story from the top
You might call my bluff
And my heart couldn't take that
If my sleight of hand caught your eye
Not another word would reside
If I start this story from the top
You might call my bluff
And my heart couldn't take that
If my sleight of hand caught your eye
Not another word would reside
(But my heart couldn't take that)
