You told me I was all you'd ever need
You said my love would always be enough
Your scarlet kisses on my skin fooled me til the end

Every single word you said
Every drop dead shade of red
Were just lipstick promises
Was I easy to deceive
You were so easy to believe
I fell for your every kiss 
And your lipstick promises

Since you've gone I see were I went wrong
All your lies somehow left me blind
What you said would last so long
Was only painted on

Every single word you said
Every drop dead shade of red
Were just lipstick promises
Was I easy to deceive
You were so easy to believe
I fell for your every kiss
And your lipstick promises

Was I easy to deceive
You were so easy to believe
I fell for your every kiss
And your lipstick promises

Every single word you said
Every drop dead shade of red
Were just lipstick promises

Just lipstick promises
