Lyrics
The complexion of your smile was off
The smile you wore seemed insincere or troubled.
The perfection in your eyes was lost
The captivating quality in your eyes is no longer present.
Your nose was twitching with guilt
Your nose movements suggest guilt or deceit.
Each nostril exhaling lies
You are exhaling falsehoods through both nostrils.
And your pretty little mouth had spilt
Your mouth, though pretty, has spoken words the speaker despises.
The very the words I despise
The words spoken are particularly loathsome to the speaker.
Am I going mad or is it true?
The speaker questions their sanity or the truthfulness of the situation.
'Cause I feel like I'm on to you
The speaker feels suspicious and believes they are uncovering something.
You're tempting me to let it drop
You are tempting the speaker to reveal or confront the truth.
You empty me with each full stop
Your actions are emotionally draining for the speaker.
I should be able to let you out of my sight
The speaker wishes they could ignore you, but questions your whereabouts.
Then again where were you last night?
The speaker raises concerns about your activities the previous night.
I hope you don't become my Moriarty
The speaker hopes you won't be a deceptive figure like Moriarty (fictional character known for cunning).
But I highly doubt you're planning a party
The speaker doubts your intentions, suspecting you're not planning something positive.
So am I going mad or is it true?
The speaker questions their sanity or the reality of the situation once again.
I sort of feel like I'm on to you
The speaker continues to feel they are uncovering something suspicious.
You're tempting me to let it drop
You are tempting the speaker again, possibly to disclose the truth.
You empty me with each full stop
Your actions continue to emotionally drain the speaker.
Am I going mad or is it true?
The speaker reiterates their uncertainty about the situation.
