lyrics
You played your role, the girl that you wanted to be
You made them believe, let them see what they wanted to see
You fed them dreams, they swallowed them whole
The bigger the lies, the stronger their hold
You started to believe the tall tales you told
You started to forget all that glitters isn’t gold
Magpie, say goodbye to your thieving days
Magpie, ain’t no one got time for your lying ways
When you laid down, alone in your bed,
did it keep you awake keeping them straight, the lies in your head?
Starting over again, would you change your ways,
or is your mind just bent towards the day you get out of this cage?
Magpie, say goodbye to your thieving days
Magpie, ain’t no one got time for your lying ways
And your mama says she knows that they raised you straight
Your daddy, he don’t know when you lost your way
And your friends, they’re left trying to separate
truth from lies, and while they try, it’s gonna be some time till you fly again
Magpie, say goodbye to your thieving days
Magpie, ain’t no one got time for your lying ways
