Pretty Girl's Lie
Songz Trey Lyrics

She grew up without a father
She was raised without a father's love and guidance

Never knew how to love a man
She didn't have a father figure to show her how to love a man

She's addicted to breaking hearts and moving on
She's used to breaking hearts and moving on to her next conquest

So I never really stood a chance
He couldn't compete with her habits of breaking hearts

And a sparkle lit your eyes
Her eyes had a sparkling quality to them

They shine so flawless I'm amazed
Her eyes were flawless and stunning

Blinded by an angel's face
He was taken with her beautiful face and personality

It's the sweetest poison in one kiss
She was intoxicating, like a sweet poison

And now you got the venom in your veins
He's been poisoned by her allure

Believing everything her lips say
He trusts everything she says

Pretty girls lie
Beautiful women are often deceitful

Lipstick in her smile
Her smile is so alluring, it's like she's wearing lipstick

Makes you want to believe
Her beauty makes it easy to be fooled by her lies

But pretty girls hide
Beautiful women are often hiding deep pain and insecurity

Pain so deep inside
Her pain is rooted deep within herself

She can't even see
She's not even aware of her own pain

Got you walking through a maze, yeah
He's confused by her lies and can't find his way out

Eyes closed tryin' to find your way
He's blindly searching for a way out

Got your arms reached out
He's reaching out for her, hoping for a way out

Hoping she gon' make a sound
He's hoping she'll provide some guidance or reassurance

Cause she don't wanna be found
She's intentionally hiding the truth from him

But she'll tell you come anyway
Despite her intentions, she'll still ask him to come to her

And you don't know the difference
He can't tell what's real and what's fake with her

From the real or the fake
He can't distinguish what's genuine and what's counterfeit

Devil in a dress, but an angel in the face
She's attractive but has an underlying sinister nature

They're forever yours but it's only for the day
She'll make him believe she's his forever, but it's only temporary

Is it real when you calling my name?
He questions if her affection for him is genuine

Wanna give the benefit of the doubt
He wants to believe in her

The best in her, I wanna help bring it out
He sees the potential for her to be better and wants to help her achieve that

I know something's missing inside
He senses that there's something she's not telling him

If you let me I can show and prove
He's willing to help her overcome her demons

Girl there ain't no running from the truth
He urges her to face the truth about herself and her life

She says I'll be there
She promises to be there for him

Girl don't just tell me what I wanna hear
He doesn't want her to placate him with empty promises

That's a pretty face and
She has a pretty face

She did find a way
She found a way to deceive him

That's a beautiful girl
She's a beautiful woman

Lost in the world
She's lost in her own world of pain and deceit

Can't trust what she says
He's learned not to trust her words

After so many break-ups and make-ups in life
He's been through the cycle of breaking up and getting back together with her

Could've been making love and end up in a fight
Their relationship can be passionate but also volatile

Don't tell me why
He doesn't want to hear her excuses anymore
