False Idol Songtext
von MARIS

(Ahh)
(I see it better, I see it better)

I was looking for a remedy
Somebody to save me, mm
You were some kind of serenity
But, baby, look what you made me

You let me down a million times
So I could only look up to you
Was never enough for you
Your silhouette against the sky
Your shadow blocking out light

I′ve been running from your shadow
You were just a false idol
Pretty words and fake smiles
You were just a false idol
(Oh-ohh, ohh, ohh)
I see it better, I see it better than before (Oh-ohh, ohh, ohh, ohh)
I coulda never been the one you wanted more


All I could think about every day
Was why you couldn't love me in the same way
You made me so cynical, praying for a miracle
I mean this so literal, you criminal

I′ve been running from your shadow
You were just a false idol
Pretty words and fake smiles
You were just a false idol
(Oh-ohh, ohh, ohh)
I see it better, I see it better than before (Oh-ohh, ohh, ohh, ohh)
I coulda never been the one you wanted more

You let me down a million times
(I see it better, I see it better than before)
Your silhouette against the sky
Your shadow blocking out light

I've been running from your shadow
You were just a false idol
Pretty words and fake smiles
You were just a false idol
(Oh-ohh, ohh, ohh)
I see it better, I see it better than before
(Woah-oh, ohh, ohh, ohh-oh)
I coulda never been the one you wanted more


(Oh-ohh, ohh, ohh, ohh)
You were just a false idol
