False Idol

[Intro]
(Ahh)
(I see it better, I see it better)

[Verse 1]
I was looking for a remedy
Somebody to save me, mm
You were some kind of serenity
But, baby, look what you made me

[Pre-Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Bridge]
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

[Chorus]
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

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