Emery - Piggy Bank Lies Lyrics

Artist: Emery

Album: ...In Shallow Seas We Sail

Genre: Rock

  • Songwriters: Matt Carter, Josh Head, Toby Morrell, Dave Powell, Devin Shelton

All these answers for the words that you omitted
You omit them still
Never thought I would find out but we're here now
I'm aching for this, aching for it

You said you'd never been with anyone else
But you lied, as you tried to say somehow
That I was the one to blame

Is this the way you've found for saving yourself?
If lies were wealth you'd need help
Counting riches from your mouth's piggy bank

I drove these streets to your front door
So could you please just help me out?
It's sad to say but there's always more
And you just stare like you can't hear a sound

Hide the suspect, hide the suspect
Hide the suspect, hide the suspect

This is where you say it's not what it looks like
He's got his hands wrapped around your waist
Well I want this, do you want it?
And I hate this, but you flaunt it

It sounds absurd so I waited for my own eyes
To put a face on the person that built these lies
Did you want this? 'Cause I want it
Could have fooled me 'cause I bought it

You have been found out

I told myself it was the jealousy that caught my distrust
But I'm such a good pretender I surrendered my doubts
Of all the liars number one is where you made your debut
But I'll teach you the truth because I've figured you out

I drove these streets to your front door
So could you please just help me out?
It's sad to say but there's always more
That brought you just stare like you can't hear a sound

Hide the suspect, hide the suspect
Hide the suspect, hide the suspect
I've finally figured you out
I've finally figured you out

This is where you say it's not what it looks like
He's got his hands wrapped around your waist
Well I want this, do you want it?
And I hate this, but you flaunt it

It sounds absurd so I waited for my own eyes
To put a face on the person that built these lies
Did you want this? 'Cause I want it
Could have fooled me 'cause I bought it

Trying to forget and wishing we never met
I should have been careful, I thought I was unbreakable
But sometimes you find out that you cannot control your heart
Or regain the person that you were from the start

Hide the suspect, hide the suspect
Hide the suspect, hide the suspect

This is where you say it's not what it looks like
He's got his hands wrapped around your waist
Well I want this, do you want it?
And I hate this, but you flaunt it

It sounds absurd so I waited for my own eyes
To put a face on the person that built these lies
Did you want this? 'Cause I want it
Could have fooled me 'cause I bought it
