[intro]
[fade in]

[verse 1]
[Intense]
I thought I had your heart under lock and key
Oh what a fool you've made of me
(of me)
You had something hidden underneath
a tattoo of another name

kept beneath your sleeve


[verse 2]
where is my name
written on your skin?
is it hidden deep within?
written all over your sin

You don't have to tell me
I feel your fake love is wearing thin

[bridge]
oh oh
now I know where all your love has been
someone else is getting everythin'


[chorus]
living a double life
hiding behind so many lies
while time is just ticking by,
just ticking by
why could I not see what was in your eyes
what could I not feel what was behind
that clockwork smile

(clockwork smile)

[verse 3]
every little moment planned out perfectly
timings set, the same old rhythm on repeat
hoping I'd never suspect a thing

credit where credit's due

you never skipped a beat, or handed out any clues


[verse 4]
[faster]
how long did you think you could keep on livin'
with your heart on the verge of splittin'
one name on your arm
another on your heart
were you the gift that just keeps on givin?
or just a girl too scared to make a decision?

all while letting your smile just keep on tickin'
(Keep on tickin')

[chorus]
[mid temo]
living a double life
hiding behind so many lies
while time is just ticking by,
just ticking by
why could I not see what was in your eyes
what could I not feel what was behind
that clockwork smile

(clockwork smile)

[verse 5]
Everythin' locked up systematically
easier just to let it be
praying I was to caught up to see
that all your love wasn't even for me
just the occasional convenient piece to keep me from seeing the things I should've been

[bridge]
your clockwork smile
with a crack showin' every once in a while
seemingly always runnin' on time
all those hours, all those lies
all those times I thought your love was mine

[outro]
ooohh oh oh

all that love hidden behind

that clockwork smile

(that clockwork smile)
