Songtext Swindler Vanessa Carlton

Swindler

Written by Vanessa Carlton

I've been mistaken
You swindled once again
Now there's no question
I, I was wrong
And now I stand alone
Just studded in your throne
Your true colors shown
You don't belong

And now I'm lost
And now I run from you
And now I see
Just how I bleed from you
And all the lies, all the lies
How could I let you in?
But now it's clear
I went along for the ride

Hey, Mr. Merry Man
I know you'll come again
Till you find just what you're looking for
And if I'm your little lamb
Oh, would you leave again?
Oh no, I bet you'd stay for more

And now I lost
And now I run from you
And now I see
Just how I bleed from you
And all the lies, all the lies
How could I let you in?
But now it's clear
I went along for the ride

And now I'm finding out
You were nothing about
What I thought you were
And now I understand
Just how you work your plan
First you're warm and then you just burn

And now I lost
And now I run from you
And now I see
Just how I bleed from you
And all the lies, all the lies
How could I let you in?
But now it's clear I went along for the ride

And now I'll make my way
Through another day
'Cause I know better now
You'll drop another line
On someone else's time
But in me you still resound

And now I'm lost
And now I run from you
And now I see
Just how I bleed from you
And all the lies, all the lies
How could I let you in?
But now it's clear
I went along for the ride
