Lyrics

She's got a pretty smile it covers up the poison

She presents a pleasant facade, masking something harmful beneath.

That she hides she walks around in circles in my head

She repetitively occupies the narrator's thoughts.

Waiting for the chance to break me chance to take me down

She is waiting for the opportunity to harm or defeat the narrator.

Well I see the burden you gave me

The narrator acknowledges the weight of the emotional burden given by her.

It's too much to carry it's too much to bury inside

The burden is overwhelming and challenging to conceal.

I guess you're the only one

The belief that she is the only significant person in the narrator's life.

Nobody changes I guess you're the only one

Despite life changes, she remains a constant in the narrator's perspective.

That's still doing everything else ...

Her influence persists amidst other life activities.

You're still the only one yeah you're still the only one

Emphasizes her exclusivity as the one still relevant in the narrator's life.

Wisdom shallow oh so peeling

Describes the shallowness of her wisdom, peeling away its depth.

Now I'm up to my ankles and I'm drowning

The narrator feels submerged and overwhelmed by sarcastic and familiar elements.

Away in a sea sarcastic faces familiar places

Reference to the drowning feeling in a sea of confusion and familiar but confusing places.

Everything that's quite the same it's all confusing ...

Everything seems the same, causing confusion and amusement.

Amusing literally tainted a picture you've painted to me

Her actions have tainted the narrator's perception, creating a distorted picture.

I guess you're the only one

Reiterates the belief that she is the only significant person in the narrator's life.

Nobody changes I guess you're the one

Despite external changes, she remains unchanged in the narrator's eyes.

That's still doing when everything else goes down

She is the constant when everything else is falling apart.

You're still the only one

Reaffirms her exclusivity as the only relevant person in the narrator's life.

We never change faces

Highlighting the lack of change in her expressions or demeanor.

I guess you're the only one that's still doing

Despite changes, she continues to be actively involved in the narrator's life.

Everything else goes down

Emphasizes her continued presence amidst life's challenges.

Just cause the sounds in your head

Dismissal of the significance of the sounds in her head affecting the narrator.

Doesn't mean it has to be in mine

The narrator's rejection of her influence on their thoughts.

Don't believe what you said still can't get it out of my mind

Doubt lingers about the truth of what she said, persisting in the narrator's mind.

I've tried to find myself in approval

The narrator sought self-approval but faced difficulty.

I've already been there already done that

The narrator acknowledges previous attempts at finding oneself and gaining approval.

It got me no where it brought me nothing

Reflection on the lack of progress and benefits from past efforts.

But a good place to hide in no one to confide in

Reflects on finding solace in hiding, with no one trustworthy to confide in.

Now I guess you're the only one

Reiteration of the belief that she is the only significant person in the narrator's life.

Nobody changes I guess you're the only one

Despite changes, she remains unchanged in the narrator's eyes.

That will never change faces

Her facial expressions and demeanor remain constant and unchanging.

I guess you're the only one

Reaffirms her exclusivity as the only relevant person in the narrator's life.
