Hot Scars, Pretty Lies

I don't wanna fight back
Bracing for the contact
Crashing on the pavement
Blood and I can taste it (yeah)
God, I swear that I tried
Hot scars and pretty lies

Take another hit as I walk in
The cycle starts again
Suddenly, I pocket new fake friends
Closing my eyes and I can see the end

And now I'm dancing in the dark
A sober mind twisting my heart
Hypnotized all in a daze
Saying everything's okay
When really

Lately, I'm terrified
I'm losing this high
Hot scars, pretty lies and L.A. nights

A bitter feeling
Like there's an invite that I missed
Had me believing
Baby, I thought I'd faded in

Now I'm dancing in the dark
A sober mind twisting my heart
Hypnotized all in a daze
Saying everything's okay

Lately, I'm terrified
I'm losing this high
Hot scars, pretty lies and L.A. nights
On my knees I confess
It's been going straight to my head
Can you blame me, though, for going off the deep end?

I don't wanna fight back
Bracing for the contact
Crashing on the pavement
Blood and I can taste it (yeah)
God, I swear that I tried
Hot scars and pretty lies

My demons are waiting for me to slip up
(My demons are waiting for me to slip up)
Just one wrong turn and I self destruct
My demons are waiting for me to slip up
Just one wrong turn and I self destruct
And it's all good until it's not, until it's not

Lately, I'm terrified
I'm losing this high
Hot scars, pretty lies and L.A. nights
On my knees I confess
It's been going straight to my head
Can you blame me, though, for going off the deep end?

I don't wanna fight back
Bracing for the contact
Crashing on the pavement
Blood and I can taste it (yeah)
God, I swear that I tried
Hot scars and pretty lies
