I'm Not Talking About You

The devil is in the details
In the breath you inhale

Your evasions of privacy

The devil is in your empty eyes

In your truth when you lie

In your false narrative

You forged the chase

You forged it with grace

And made it look good

Told the story once or twice

So natural, humble and nice

Wanting me to fake too 

Well, I could say

This is all a game

And it's all in vain

To expect the truth

I could say

You're the one to blame

And you can't complain

For being the one to lose

I could say all of these things

But I'm not talking about you

The devils is in the details

In caption letters on daily mail

When you try to save your neck

The devils is in your face

In the facade you display

As you wish you'd have me back

The mess you made

The false promise and heartbreak

Was it all you thought it would be?

The time you wasted

The hit and run, the sweet escape

Was it unfortunate or just destiny?

I could say that I already knew

But I'm not talking about you
