I was looking for the light
I don't wanna be the problem
I was in it for the night
You said you wanted
something stronger than you had
And that was that
You took my hand
and then we slipped out of the back
You didn't tell, I didn't ask
I guess that I assumed
that it was it the past
Oh Adeline, I'm not saying
that it was a crime
I know I shouldn't feel so surprised
But I turned to stone
when you called him back
And you told him I'm out of your life
Cause you just used me for an alibi
Whatever makes you feel justified
I took the fall and you fled the scene
with my hands tied
Oh Adeline, why did you lie?
(Lie to mе)
Oh Adeline, why did you lie?
I wanna jump into a cab
Tеll them "take me anywhere else"
Was this always in the plan you had?
A scapegoat to take the blame
for what you did and what you said
You took my hand
and then you threw me off the ledge
You didn't cry, I didn't beg
I guess I'll fold while dealt a dirty hand
Oh Adeline, I'm not saying
that it was a crime
I know I shouldn't feel so surprised
But I turned to stone
when you called him back
And you told him I'm out of your life
Cause you just used me for an alibi
Whatever makes you feel justified
I took the fall
and you fled the scene with my hands tied
And all you had to do was look back
Did our fire thaw your frozen heart?
You threw on the pile in your closet
With your skeletons in the dark
And we were laying on my deathbed
Our story ended in the prologue
You took what you wanted and ran back
And I turned to stone
Oh Adeline, I guess
that I was just an alibi
I hope that helps you feel justified
I took the fall
and you fled the scene with my hands tied
