Lake Monster

[Verse 1]
Went to Alloa on your birthday
Not that I was trying to forget about you
But I did
For a second
And I felt better

[Verse 2]
I said "Hello" to the Lake Monster
We both know how it feels to be alone
Last of its kind
I know you know it's true
No-one could kiss you better than I do

[Pre-Chorus Bridge]
She's still got you wrapped around her finger doesn't she?
Posing for imaginary photos
Like some girls that I used to know
Sweetness like venom
'Cause it's at least with poison ivy
And now I'm green down to the core
Though I don't know him anymore

[Chorus]
Smile like you know him
Smile like you know him
Honey he doesn't even know himself
Smile like you know him
Smile like you know him
Soon enough you will

[Verse 3]
You didn't love me the right way
We all know that
All my reflecting
It hasn't fixed a thing
It doesn't cure the ache inside my chest
Everybody knows I loved you best

[Verse 4]
And the funny thing is I'm a little too late to
Tell you what you already know
That when you lost me in the name of self-discovery
I'm the only one who found myself
So

[Bridge]
There's little to say except
Except maybe someday you'll find what you say you're looking for
Glad in the meantime you decided to stop wasting time
'Cause wasting time's my only regret

[Chorus]
Smile like you know him
Smile like you know him
Honey he doesn't even know himself
Smile like you know him
Smile like you know him
Soon enough you will
